Aria, Sydney, Australia

Having been a couple of times to Aria, the 2 Chef's Hat restaurant manages to produce consistent food and service everytime. Thank you for taking us out on such a lovely meal to celebrate Mel's birthday.

Happy Aussie Day!

It has been a while since we last posted anything on our beloved blog. We have been so busy with wedding plans that we simply couldnt get around to blogging. On saying that, we didnt have much to blog other than wedding stuff and we are sure not all our readers (if any) will be interested.

Anyhow, today is Australia Day and we decided to treat ourselves to sleeping in and doing absolutely NOTHING at home. Not to mention the Australian summer this year is pretty sh*t.

A big 'Thank you' to Nick & Mel for treating us to some of Sydney's finest restaurants.

Blancharu, Elizabeth Bay, Sydney




We have been wanting to try Chef Harunobu Inukai's Japo-Franco cuisine that reigns supreme at his not so recently opened 1 hatted Blancharu restaurant. He has moved on from his previous role @ Galileo and we were curious to see how the new venture will translate on the plate. I got to say that the end product was inventive, different, inspired and all for a reasonable price. Definitely a must try again!

Albert Roux, Sofitel Sydney



My fantastic uncle and aunt had extended the invite for us to join them on some fancy dining with the world renowned chef Albert Roux. Albert did certainly bring a bit of French flare over to Sydney with a very accomplished 4 course meal. The highlight was undoubtedly the boeuf topped with crusted bone marrow, potato fondant and an unctuous red wine jus.

This experience adds to our Roux encounters with only Alain Roux @ the Waterside Inn left.

Long Time No See...

It has been super long since we last posted anything on our blog. The great news is that we finally got engaged! Woohoo!! Lots to plan for the big day and not to mention at how crazily expensive weddings are, we will need to cut back on all the fun and games with the Sydney dining scene. Boooo...
