He’s baacckk! Sydney’s favourite foodie, Justin North, has resurfaced onto the culinary scene, swapping haute cuisine (Becasse, Quarter 21, Etch) for the humble burger. You’ll need to head to Mosman to get a taste of North’s new project (owned by restaurateur and filmmaker Tim Jolley) – The Burger Shed – which, as you guessed, is...

Opera Bar for breakfast
Located on some of the best visual real estate in the city, Opera Bar is offering early risers a reason to shine. From 9am on weekends, this famous bar is serving the ultimate Sydney Champagne breakfast. Shade yourself under the sails of the Opera House or sun yourself on the concourse overlooking the harbour and choose from...
Trailer Park food
Food truck rallies are the ultimate way for greedy gutses to get their chow on. Trailer Park, the brainchild of Jess Pryles has decided to organise things a little by designating a space, adding a bar and seating. If curious, head down to Village Melbourne on the first weekend of August to snaffle the wares of...
Goodness at The Grain Store
Forget about a fry up – The Grain Store is bringing goodness back to breakfast. Tucked into the western end of Flinders Lane, well away from the competitive strip of Cumulus Inc, Meatballs and Chin China, The Grain Store is doing it’s own thing. Think plenty of fresh flowers, a jumble of giant pumpkin and...
Barre3, The Holy Trinity of Fitness
Scarlett’s lips, Ange’s legs and K-Mid’s nose… We’re getting pretty specific about how we want to look these days. But here’s a perfect equation you don’t have to go under the knife for (not that you’d ever need to anyway): The strength of an athlete and the grace of dancer. You might even get Madonna’s...
Timothy Oulton Comes to Town
The Brits sure know how to stop traffic. Across the pond the little prince has stopped the nation (ok we’ve all been watching – he stopped the world) but Church St now has its very own Brit who is commanding quite a bit of attention. Last week the Timothy Oulton by Coco Republic concept store opened...
Hot Chef Shuffle to Saint Crispin
The Patron Saint of Cobblers is a handy guy. Think about it for a second; imagine life without shoes. It’s time to give thanks to Saint Crispin and walk your favourite kicks into his eponymous Collingwood eatery. This new establishment is the creative exploit of Scott Pickett (Estelle Kitchen & Bar) and Joe Grbac (ex...
Celebrate half a century of Laksa love at The Malaya
The search for the perfect Laksa can do strange things to people; it can remedy man-flu, create a momentary loss of fashion sense as you don a white plastic bag bib around your neck and it can cause the onset of one massive hankering. Whilst many Sydney restaurants struggle to stay open longer than 50...
Fat Rupert’s Enters Bondi’s Bar Scene
Named after its owners’ overfed and subsequently overweight cocker spaniel, Fat Rupert’s is the newest addition to Bondi’s eat and drink scene. Occupying the recently vacated Flying Squirrel corner spot on Bondi Road, you wouldn’t be mistaken for thinking it’s kinda the same (?!) pulling the same hipster crowd complete with beards, chequered shirts, and...
Dine at Mine
Hey there, competitive cooking game show enthusiast – reckon Your Kitchen Rules? Well here’s your chance to prove it without any public trolling, televised takedowns or overzealous demands for more sauce by heavily-accented Frenchmen. Assuming your friends are family and aren’t unusually critical (is that possible?), that is. Leaping onto the home dinner party trend...
