Restaurants

Sydney is a great city to live in for food lovers, and it has a great range of restaurants that suits all budgets. In Chinatown you can choose everything from cheap to more expensive Chinese restaurants, around world square you have great Asian cuisines and there is a wide range of European cuisines spread across the city as well.

One of the great things of dining out is trying out new things on the menu that you haven't tasted before, and in a lot of cases trying out ingredients that you never knew went well together!! I am neither rich or seeking to build up my wallet just to allow myself to go fine dining on a regular basis, as I think it is nice to keep these visits for special occasions (my waist line is probably happy about this decision too)! 


We have tried a wide range of restaurants from cheap to expensive, and I don't always think that the more you pay the better the food is. For me the restaurant experience is also about the ambiense of the place as well, and the French seems to always be good at doing that, and below are photos of two of the best French restaurants I have visited in Australia so far..
