Hey hey! Last week we had an incredibly fun, foodie weekend in Sydney with our good friend An!

I’ll be blogging the individual venues in more detail, but for now I’d like to show you a brief glimpse of our Sydney eats! (Needless to say, the culinary itinerary was planned months in advance, with most venues chosen after seeing tantalizing tweets and blogs from some of my fave Sydney peeps).
On our first night, we had dinner at the Momofuku Seiobo bar.
Momofuku Seiobo's Confit Chicken Wings - $16.00 |
Right opposite Momofuku Seiobo is the Adriano Zumbo dessert train and pâtisserie. The line for the dessert train was a bit long, so we picked up some pastries and macarons, and ate them back in the hotel. Very decadent!

The next morning, we stopped in at Flour and Stone in Woolloomooloo for lovely homestyle cakes and coffee.
Breakfast at Flour and Stone, Woolloomooloo |
Lunch was crazy cocktails and tasty bites at White Hart in Neutral Bay.
The Breakfast Mojito (serves 2) - $20, White Hart |
...because later that night we were doing the full degustation at Tetsuya’s! OMG! What an incredible treat! It definitely lived up to expectation and I literally loved every single course, but must give a special mention to the absolutely gorgeous confit ocean trout with fennel and unpasteurised caviar. Meltingly soft and just beautiful!

We recovered the next morning with a healthy(ish) brunch at Orto Trading Co. in Surry Hills. Even though I’m not much of a juice drinker, the highlight of brunch for me was the refreshing strawberry, apple and orange juice. So pretty!
Apple, Orange and Strawberry juice - $6.50 |
Din Tai Fung's Xiao Long Bao - $5.80; Charlie & Co Fries; Sassy Red's Chicken Char Kway Teow |
Let's have a look at some non-food photos too:
