Centennial Dining

Centennial Dining

[ 17 ] February 2, 2012

You would have thought planning an outdoor event in Sydney at the start of February would be a relatively safe bet. Think again, Mother Nature has an ulterior motive this year ripping us off with non-stop rain. We had romantic intentions of hosting a unique event under the twinkling stars on a balmy summer evening. [...]

Food Society

Food Society

[ 2 ] November 20, 2011

Searching Google for Croatian restaurants in Sydney’s east would lead most to the restaurant and somewhat institution known as the Balkan on Oxford St. Acting as the perfect distraction some Secret Foodies guests were convinced this was the destination for our Dalmatian Coast Dinner.
Note, the website did read NEW restaurant so for those who dug [...]

Take a stroll through the streets of Darlinghurst and it seems there is always something quirky and interesting to be seen. New graffiti on walls, someone’s ‘trash’, another’s treasure littering the streets or the occasional homeless person straying from Kings Cross. Locals would have to admit it’s rare to find a dull route.
That said, few [...]

Spanish Warehouse with Chris Cranswick-Smith

Spanish Warehouse with Chris Cranswick-Smith

[ 0 ] October 23, 2011

What’s better than spending the night at a Spanish pop-up restaurant? Spending two nights there. Night 2 and our chef for this evening is Chris Cranswick-Smith from Surry Hills restaurant, Emmilou.  Prior to opening his restaurant in 2007 Chris spent 5 years crafting his culinary flair in some of Spain’s leading kitchens. His unique style brings [...]

[ 0 ] October 21, 2011

At the end of April 2010 we hosted our first Secret Foodies. I invited 10 friends with strict instructions to bring one guest I’d never met before to dinner. Two hours before dinner everyone would receive a secretinfo text message with instructions on where to meet.
That first Secret Foodies saw 20 like-minded people brought together [...]

Look out ladies of the night pounding the pavements of the Golden Mile, there’s a hot, new classy blonde in town and she’s got style money can’t buy. It seems Kings Cross is the place to be right now with foodies salivating at the latest’s developments. We have Barrio Chino serving authentic Mexican and Gastro [...]

Sometimes you see things in life that make you stop, step back and stare. You can attempt to capture the moment with a photo but you’ll never truly reenact what you’ve experienced. When it comes to food, that photo can’t recreate the aromas, the taste or the memories it evokes.
It’s a shame we can’t rewind [...]

Avido

Avido

[ 3 ] July 14, 2011

Having opened in September of last year Avido is a welcomed addition to the shop lined, pub spotted strip of Oxford St, Paddington. Blink and you may miss it but take a moment to peak through the glass doors on a cold night and you’ll find a warm and inviting space worthy of a pause.
The [...]

Four In Hand

Four In Hand

[ 4 ] June 11, 2011

Some men are born to break rules. They challenge society and make us question how we see the world. Mandela, Ghandi, Muhammad Ali, Dali Lama, even Robin Hood have all gone down in history as famous ‘rule-breakers’. I know you’re thinking, “Surely she’s not going to compare a chef with the likes of Ghandi”!  In [...]
