Food scene

Their entrees are amazing. I recommend just selecting a number of entrees and skipping the mains! Definitely try the eggplant when you’re there.

One of the best views in Sydney. Great views and moderately priced food to be enjoyed with a cocktail. It is also very close to Walsh bay, which has brilliant dining options!

Incredible Mediterranean food in Sydney. If you go, make sure you try the ox tongue & spatchcock. 5 Stars!

A banh mi is a staple in a Vietnamese man's diet. To me, this is probably one of the top 3 places in Sydney to try one. You can eat it on the go too. Doesn't get much better than this.

Activities

I’m not a big swimmer but this place is awesome! Great views, open early. I often swim here right after work and finish it off with a stroll through the botanic gardens!

Sightseeing

I lived in Sydney for 25 years before I discovered this place. It’s almost a crime how nice it is. I have a picnic set available for you to borrow if you’d like to find a nice spot, read a nice book and enjoy some champagne. It’s also just a nice 15 minute stroll from my place.

Sometimes after a day of walking around the city you just want a short rest. This is a hidden oasis close to everything. I sometimes actually sit and meditate inside here near the water feature. It's open 7 days from 10am to 5pm. Entry is only $10 and you can stay as long you'd like.
