*** Insert amazing introduction here, Isaac please update this when you get the chance as this is FIVE GUYS. I know it’s not Shake Shack, but God damn, please take this seriously because this is President Obama’s favourite burger spot so please write something witty, personable and in your signature style that doesn’t seem like […]

KFC Degustation
When I think KFC, I think eating 12 wicked wings at a time, a large serving of chips and a tub of pure gravy…and demolishing this smorgasbord of deep fried delicacies in a stained t-shirt and sometimes with no pants on. I do not think fine dining, waiters dressed to the nines or a floating […]
Merah Putih, Bali
Merah Putih in Seminyak is a modern take on classic Indonesian cuisine oozing with innovation and delicious innovation at that
Hawker Chan, Melbourne CBD
Hawker Chan in Melbourne is part of the Hawker Cinematic Universe with the first (and most popular movie) calling Singapore home. It shot to fame when it became the cheapest Michelin restaurant ever with its signature soya sauce chicken with rice costing $1.50 Singapore Dollars ($1.62 AUD). I just ran into a newsagent to see […]
Kusuka, Haymarket
What’s the tastiest ingredient any chef can incorporate into their dishes? In my opinion, it’s nostalgia. It’s the one spice that can take a diner back to what it was like when they were a kid and trying something for the first time, or something they’d eat when they first got home after school or […]
Cuppaflower, Waterloo
You can always tell how badly your friends have screwed up just by observing the size of the bouquets they were purchasing after work. Sure, some were being proactive and buying nice flowers for the Hell of it but few people splash out for $120 rose collections on random Wednesdays. I once saw a buddy of mine splash […]
Luke Nguyen Street Food Pop Up, Pyrmont
I come from the streets. Ok, the streets were lined with large, leafy trees and white picket fences but still. I’m not claiming to be hood (the most hood thing about me is my large collection of zip-up hoodies), but I did come from a street of some sort. Where was I going with this? […]
Salmon and Bear, Newtown
If you have a look at what Hollywood is coming up with outside of comic book movies, you’ll be thoroughly disappointed. We have remakes, prequels, sequels, sequels to prequels and movies trying to convince us that Kevin James is a movie star. We also have weird combinations coming up like Godzilla vs King Kong….yes, it […]
Skittle Lane, CBD
Have I ever told you guys about the first time I tried to cook? My mother was in the process of preparing dinner and I nominated myself as her sous chef. By that point in time, I had seen enough cooking shows to build up a false sense of confidence in my budding skills as […]
Kensington Street Social, Chippendale
Once upon a time, being near Kensington meant I was on my way to class. Admittedly, my attendance during my tertiary education was quite low. I was too busy not going to uni to actually go to uni, you’re not going to believe this but my low-attendance methods resulted in two degrees (man, I hope […]
Shortstop Sydney, Barangaroo
My parents were never big on giving me advice, they tend to teach via example. I learned about work ethic from them when they were leaving for their jobs before I woke up, I learned about the value of saving when I saw my mother regularly fish out silver coins that had fallen underneath my bed […]
Ms Murray, CBD
As I grow older, more and more of my friends are getting hitched. Every day, I see more announcements and photos from a romantic weekend gone by. Nights of drunken escapades, regrettable hook-ups and waking up next to strangers have been replaced with discussions about diamond sizes, honeymoon spots and waking up next to the […]
