Standing outside Ryo’s Noodles, we see a young ramen lover lead his clan of oldies and grandoldies to the end of the queue, however after some shouting and arguing, the oldies win out and they walk away from the queue. The disappointed youngster will have...
My pilgrimage to Tetsuya’s began over six months ago. I was shuffled into my 4th different team at work in less than a year and there were plenty of rumours and innuendo about the future of the organisation. I received a call from a recruiter...
After the third session of my newest exercising adventure in Olympic weightlifting, I had that great feeling you get after a long break away from the iron (or in my case, the newbie broomstick). I wasn’t puffed out or exhausted or sweaty. I was feeling...
An Eastern Suburbs favourite has begun its adventure westwards. From their first store up the northern end of Bondi, Doughboy has expanded across Sydney, from the beach, past the city and up the river to their newest branch in Abbotsford. We’ve heard lots of great...
Last week was my last at my old work, with a fresh and exciting new adventure to begin for me next week. That means I had this week off, spending each beautiful day at home. Oh all the fun things I did, cleaning the kitchen,...

On a tip from my new homesick Melbournian buddy, she suggests we try the popular Spanish tapas and wine bar, located in a colourful little laneway adjacent to the awesome Forum Theatre, MoVida. “Call them now”, she tells me. “Their waiting list can be months...
At 5:30pm in a windy little laneway in Parramatta’s CBD, there’s already a nice little collection of families and couples waiting outside Temasek . It is Father’s Day and the various parties have all been told to arrive for an early dinner ahead of a...
On a lazy Saturday, after a late 4pm lunch (if you can still call that lunch), we reschedule and postpone our dinner to…. midnight. Being the responsible people that we are, we always make sure we fulfill our allotment of daily meals so we head...
After a silly day out in the west hanging out with my cousins, we rounded up some more cousins and headed into Canley Heights for Vietnamese. On a cold winter’s night, we can only think of one thing that can warm our tummies and that’s...
