Concrete Jungle, Central Park

A newly opened cafe that worth visiting especially for the outstandingly scrumptious hotcakes! 

Yes it may looked like Harry's and rumor has it, the chef from Harry's owned the place :)

Went with two other friends on a weekday and boy the place was swarming with customers and almost in every table they order the blue magik bowl! I'm really keen to try and of course take some photos for my instagram feed ;P

The only savory dish that I got is the House Smoked Salmon with slow cooked egg, avocado puree, crisp[y potato, pear and greens. All kind of texture in a plate from crunch, chewy, salty and creamy. Delish!!

So Blue Magik made of blue algae powder blended with bananas, blueberries, blackberries and topped with coconut flakes and crunchy buckwheat in it and I especially loves the crunch from it and I think it brings the dish to another level and made it different to the other smoothie bowl.

The Blueberry and Lemon Hotcakes is one of the popular dish here. Fluffy and crisp edges are indications of perfect hotcakes!  The toppings and Blueberry ricotta cream just complement the hotcakes perfectly well. Plus it looks so damn pretty and it is almost effortless to take a good shot of it.

Would definitely be back to try the other dishes. Service are superb as well!

La Floraison, Regent Place

Recently opened pretty and bright dessert place in the lower ground of Regent Place in Sydney City. When you enter the place, it's like u're entering a magical garden full of flowers and pretty little stuff decorating the ceilings and the surrounding dining area.

I went here with my Uni friends on our last day of the semester and I kept on getting this post in my insta feed about 3D coffee printing and very keen to do one of my pic! Unfortunately when I got there, they said something was with the machine and they can't do new customize photo, so I get to pick some pre-uploaded photos in their system. Which I don't mind at all, getting both cute Stitch and Pikachu on mine :)

To be honest, this place is just looks good. And it's the end of it. The coffee takes forever to make, which is okay if the taste is worthed, but, for me it really tasted powdery like they've used powdered ones.

On top of that, there is nothing special about the dessert. Well the Taro Crepes is good, I can give them that. The rest, the Red Velvet cake is alright, the Macaron barely got any flavors besides sugar, the Agar tasted like water and the worst is the Unicorn Cupcake. Yes do are damn cute and pretty but it is literally vanilla sponge decorated cupcake and it cost $17 (comnbo with any hot drink), seriously? $11 for a cupcake? That's too much I think >.<

Will I come back? Sorry to say but probably not #isayitlikeitis

Smoking Gun bagel, Woolloomooloo

My photo didn't do any justice for this very scrumptious bagels~! Couldn't believe Sydney has this hidden gem in Woolloomooloo!!

I highly recommend this place for a great variety of bagels.. and I'd say come early cause they run out pretty quickly especially the popular ones!

Personally, I don't have any fave cause I loveeee all of them!!

Social Brew Cafe, Pyrmont

Visited Social Brew with Mr.P on a Sunday morning.. The place was packed with people and we had to queue, thankfully not for too long cause the dining area are pretty spacious.

As everyone ordered, we also are very keen to try the smoked salmon & Avocado with micro mesclun lettuce, buttermilk dressing and zaatar on grilled flat bread. Chewy bread is the winning point for me :) Its sooo delish!!

$18.5 with poached egg

We also tried the Ricotta hotcakes, maple marinated strawberries and pistachio crumble. Well, what can I say.. Simplicity is bliss!

I saw this Hibiscus beetroot pink drink up on Insta and coincidentally it is located just a walking distance from Social brew. So made a short stop and try it out.. Interesting flavours combo and the drink itself is not too sweet but have a nice creamy feel to it :)

Hills Bros, Sydney CBD

A very small cafe located in on of the building in Martin place and it can be quite busy during lunch time. No surprise, since they serve some delicious dishes!

The portion I must say is not for sharing and hence the price. But that small bowl of miso braised pork is to die for!

 The brown rice congee is perfect for a cold weather and the sweet sauce covering the congee is such a great match for the crispy shallot and that soy egg :)

 The waffle is not too impressive tho,, not sure what's with the hot chocolate in the pot.. But it does made the waffle soggy and didnt add any value to it.. The waffle itself got the crispiness on the edge and fluff in the middle :)

Would definitely be back!

Fish Market Cafe, Pyrmont

My go to eating spot every time I visited the fish market is fish market cafe! Always the busiest and now they sell the sushi donuts which is currently a thing in the US! :)

I always got the Grilled platter cause me and the hubby lovessss the combo in it! I think that the price suit the portion that we get :)

$42.50

 Craving for some lobster on the previous visit and so we tried the Lobster platter :) Still prefer the grilled platter though :)

$68.50

They have an array of sushi donuts to choose from but they are quite expensive! If you ever wonder if there's anything else below the colourful toppings, the answer is yes! It has some more meats and seaweed inside.. Even though some of my friends give me some negative review about the taste, but for me, it's alright and worth a try.. although I wouldn't buy them again hehe

Q on Harris, Ultimo

The Dessert that has shaken Instagram lately is this tremendously indulgent Green Tea Cheesecake from Q on Harris in Ultimo.

It is not too overly sweet and the green tea flavour is very profound! I usually can't finish a dessert by myself but I can literally eat the whole thing alone.

I highly recommend it if you visited the place.

Q on Harris is a very cozy little space in Ultimo offering fresh and vibrant breakfast and lunch menu. The owner is actually my childhood's friend brother and he is a very friendly and awesome dude :)

$10

The Smoked Salmon Tartine is another must try dish! Dill cream, greens, fennel, pine nuts, green apple, spanish onion, cucumber.

$17

My favourite here is the Mushroom Tartine! Mixed mushrooms cooked with fragrant herbs and creamy butter, confit garlic, spinach, sage crisp, parmesan cheese and topped on SD with poached egg. What a perfect dish for brunch and allow enough space in your stomach pouch for that green tea dessert :)

$17

Those three dishes are just perfect that it won me on my first visit! I had came back twice for the Green tea cheesecake and will keeps on coming for it :) I heard the Kabuki Waffle is pretty damn good too.

One Tea Lounge and Grill, Sydney

Chez Sun, Darlinghurst

My favorite place for delicious treats. As they are not too overly sweets like the others cafe that offer similar patisserie. The price are very reasonable too.

They offer a variety of sweet treats and they also have some seasonal specials.

The cafe also have breakfast and lunch menu, but I haven't try them out. Came twice for their dessert only. :)

Celsius Coffee Co, Kirribilli

Celsius Coffee Co is on the "must visit" list currently in Sydney! Located just at the Kirribilli Wharf, reachable by ferry or just simply drive there.. The cafe offered amazing foods and also view! Too bad I didn't take pic of the interior of the cafe.. But if you ask for window seating, you'll see the beautiful sea next to you :)

Went here on a Sunday with the Hubby.. We waited for the window seat for a good 20mins.

As usual, I got my Chai latte.. Don't feel like coffee that time. But the hubby got his flat white :) Celsius Coffee Co is using O N A Coffee bean

I ordered the Burrata & Mushroom since I loveeeee anything with mushroom, especially if the portion of the mushroom is this muchhhhhhh .^^. I'm a happy girl ;P

On the plate, we got Shiitake, Oyster and White mushroom with local Burrata cheese and chimichurri sauce on SD! Perfect combo and crisp SD! Yummmsss

$19

The dish for the hubby, which I ordered too ;P is "The Benedict" - braised lamb, Japanese yuzu hollandaise, raw almond dukkah and poached egg on SD. That lamb was so tender and well seasoned. What a new way to eat a benedict.. hihi. 

$19.50

The last and pretty one is the Celsius waffle with berries, maple syrup, toasted nuts and Peanut butter. At the first bite, I thought that there's nothing special with the waffle. Even though it was pretty chewy in the middle and crisp on the edge, it needs a bit more flav to me.. But then when I take that bit of peanut butter on it, I get it ;P Omg, who would've thought waffle and peanut butter would work .. well definitely not me haha! lovin it, couldn't stop eating em afterwards even though I'm very full already .^^."

$19

Overall, it was a great experience and new found of this place! I would recommend this place to be a definitely must visit when you're around the city. The staffs were friendly and service is on point!
