Ramen Bootcamp at Ichi-Ban Boshi ~ The Galleries, City

After three trips to Japan and countless ramens around Sydney, we've come to the conclusion that the more ramen we eat, the less we understand it.  We realise we barely know our shio from our shoyu, so we take a week of ramen re-education camp at Ichi-Ban Boshi, at The Galleries in the city.

China Tour ~ Guangzhou & Zhuhai

Guangzhou is the home of Cantonese cuisine. After a hell bus trip we eat what we can and muse about the possibilities left behind.

Takeru Poporo ~ Japanese - Market City, Chinatown

Alison's face lights up like she's a six year old with a McHappy Meal when Japanese spaghetti is suggested for dinner. Japanese spaghetti is like kids' party food for grownups: it's cheesy and fun, but with fish eggs and seaweed.

Tamana's North Indian Diner ~ Newtown

Generations of folks who have lived, studied and played around Newtown have a special place in their heart for Tamana's Indian on King Street. Tamana's is best known for a quick "3 curries on rice" from the bain-marie, but they also have some thali, chaat and dosa dishes worthy of investigation.

HLJ Asian Express ~ Chinese ~ Broadway near Central Station

George Street at Central is one harsh spot for a restaurant, yet HLJ Asian Express thrives. 

Ashfield Cafe ~ Malaysian ~ Hercules Street, Ashfield

It's funny how the most 'overseas' we've felt in a Sydney restaurant lately was in an old school Aussie milk bar.

Shanghai Delicious Food ~ Dixon House Food Court

Shanghai Delicious Food speaks the truth. It's from Shanghai. It's Delicious. And it's Food.

China ~ The Tulou Tour from Hell

Living large on a Chinese only speaking bus tour to the famous tulous and onwards to Guangzhou.

Eastwood Korean Restaurant

Pondok Buyung Indonesian Restaurant - Kensington

We couldn't pick a single favourite restaurant in Sydney, but Pondok Buyung would be in our top three list, if we had one. Man we love this joint.
