I’ve got to say, us Sydneysiders should consider ourselves spoilt when it comes to having a sizeable and vibrant Chinatown in the middle of our city, especially when you wander the streets in Londons Soho and discover the Chinatown there is comprised of just a few streets and city blocks. It’s so small you could [...]

For the very brief time we had in London I was glad we had a chance to catch up with our old flatmate from Pyrmont days. Vivacious Miss T lived with us for a while when she came to Oz and now that she’s back living in London it was good to catch up on [...]

The first I heard of this place was sitting in my Wellington hotel room, flicking through some travel mag in between marathon eating events as part of Wellington On A Plate 2010.

For some strange reason I rarely go to a pub for a meal. Why? I have no idea. We have our fair share of pubs and adjoining bistro’s in the Inner West of Sydney yet I seldom take a moment and see what the food is all about. On our recent visit to London we stayed in East Dulwich [...]
