With all these new places opening all around the city, I must admit… I might have neglected my beloved Bondi and took it for granted. So I decided I was going to have a 100% Bondi weekend featuring some good ol’ Garage Sale action, Paris Go & Trattoria delight on Saturday, and surf & beach [...]

Looking for a nice, cosy & uncrowded place for a weekend lunch with friends? Bondi has the answer: Speakeasy‘s luncheons! Launched in February, these all-included lunch affairs follow a different theme and allow you to enjoy a 3-course meal with 3 matching wines for $50 per person – and trust me, it’s really good value [...]

Is it me, or do people in Bondi go out for breakfast more than they do dinner?! After wine bars, there seems to now be a serious war amongst breakfast cafes in the bubble. Similar to what you’d do on a Friday night in Darlinghurst roaming the streets between your Shady Pines, Pocket bar and other [...]

HNY Kids! Hope you had a fantastic holiday and are ready for 2012. I’m back from a fantastic road trip in Tasmania climbing, hiking, surfing, kayaking, camping etc. and what better way to enjoy being back home in Sydney than heading to Bondi’s latest funky pop-up bar “the Bucket List”! Finally a laid back place on the [...]

I was going to blog about another funky bar in Sydney but then I figured I should write about something much more important: my brother’s kick-ass new Parisian  restaurant “La Coincidence“! I know I might be slightly biased, but it  REALLY is a cool & cosi restaurant/cafe to check out if you’re in Paris – I go there every time! JB [...]

The few instructions I’d read online seemed pretty clear – find the alleyway then go down a staircase to find this new CBD gem. Sounded easy enough. Except that once you’ve found the alleyway, you land in a courtyard with no staircase in view… Thankfully, as you’re about to give up a man approaches you [...]

It’s a known fact – as soon as you say you’re having a ‘quiet one’ or ‘just one drink’ you’re bound to end up eating pizza, with your bag on the kitchen floor and the TV set on some weird documentary in the wee hours. Or is it just me? Damn…. Finishing early last Friday, [...]

Look no further! Check out the ferries timetable and head to The Island Bar on Cockatoo Island, the latest pop up bar. The ferry/tax boat ride to get there from Bondi itself is amazing, past the Opera house and under the bridge with gorgeous views of the City. Once you’re there, you can chill on [...]
