Having decent coffee shops located at various places around the CBD is very important to me as I’m not keen on wasting my time getting from one end of town to the other just for a caffeine hit. I have a few pitstop favourites in the core of town but I didn’t really know of anywhere reliably good [...]

“What’s with the plastic grapes?” …… asks Mr K as we enter the restaurant with its intensely-coloured wall murals depicting arid plains and camels under a leafy arbour of fruiting grape vines. It seems one can identify a Uighurian/Xinjiang restaurant in Sydney’s Chinatown by doing a bit of grape-spotting and it appears we have several to choose [...]

My first taste of Uighurian food when I was in Yiwu, China on my recent work trip made me hungry for more of this unique cuisine from the Xinjiang province in the country’s remote western frontier. There are a few restaurants around Chinatown specialising in this cuisine, all of which I have put on my wishlist. [...]

The [...]

I’ve never really considered World Square as a destination for food or shopping. It’s developers had grand ideas back in its conception yet it hasn’t really made it due to the fact it’s smack-bang in the middle of the CBD retail core (ie spend frivolously) and the no-frills tight-arse Haymarket/Chinatown precenct. The lifestyle outlets have [...]

Chat Thai – Haymarket

I remember almost two years ago Sydney foodies were whispering about a new place in Haymarket that was joining the likes of Wentworth Avenue’s Spice I Am in dishing up authentic Thai food. It was new, it was exciting and it was welcomed with open arms and mouths. Today the Chat Thai empire is going strong with [...]

Saap Thai – Haymarket

I believe we just saw what could have possibly been the worst movie of the year. 2012. Now listen, fans, before you pounce and attack, I consider myself a bit of a disaster movie freak. I believe I’ve seen them all. Even the disasterous The Day After Tomorrow 2. Some bootleg jobbie I picked up [...]
