Prohibition Pop-Up with Cake Wines

Prohibition Pop-Up with Cake Wines

[ 0 ] March 2, 2013

Gangsters, flapper girls and mafia mob all gathered at a top secret location in the heart of Sydney, The Rocks for Secret Foodies Prohibition Pop-Up. We teamed up with Cake Wines who were doing a month long pop-up bar and created a 1920s vibe complete with secret passwords, charleston dancers, poker players and some sly [...]

The Morrison Bar and Oyster Room

The Morrison Bar and Oyster Room

[ 9 ] February 15, 2013

Last Saturday Secret Foodies dined ‘New York, New York’ style at The Morrison Bar and Oyster Room. A stark contrast from the building’s previous venue, The Morrison delivered a wonderful night for all and was a fantastic event to kick off the new year for Secret Foodies. Special mentions must go to the succulent lamb shoulder and Sean [...]

The second Secret Foodies event for Crave Sydney was our Party in Paris. Kicking off with French martinis with Ciroc vodka on arrival, guests were greeted with an impressive fromage and charcuterie spread by Sarah French, with a selection of the best French cheese, meats and fresh truffles. Drinks flowed freely courtesy of our sponsors [...]

On Thursday night, Secret Foodies were transported from windy Sydney to gay Paris’ in the short time it took to walk from the street entrance to our chic flag adorned private dining area. What better location for our Paris to Provence dinner than Bitton Gourmet Café and Grocer, a leader in the French café scene [...]

Italian Food Fair

Italian Food Fair

[ 1 ] June 27, 2012

My friend Massimo Mele and I have been talking about doing an event together for well over a year. Although Mass’s accent is as Aussie as meat pies he’s originally from Naples and the idea of Italian street food has always been an underlying theme in his cooking. Mass is the Executive Chef of the [...]

[ 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. [...]

“Tonight Secret Foodies is at a place starting with O. You’ll find it at D’Albora Marinas, The Spit, Mosman. See you there at 7pm. xxMsD”
After the sixth person walked into Orso and asked for Secret Foodies I’m sure the restaurant owner was ready to start throwing plates. There is only one hated restaurant at The [...]

Miga Restaurant

Miga Restaurant opened last month at 1 Dixon St, Haymarket bringing a new style of Korean dining to Sydney. The street itself is lined with Asian restaurants and on this particular night a Hong Kong celebrity is signing autographs at the front of a neighboring restaurant. We have no idea who this guy is or [...]

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 [...]

Spiedo

[ 4 ] October 28, 2011

If someone had invited me to attend a secret dinner on level 6 of the Westfield building in Sydney a year ago I would have politely declined. A bad food court, sloppy Big Macs, watered down coke and screaming children is no exaggeration of what was on offer. Fast-forward and scrap preconceived notions of shopping [...]
