And what we were really here for, that amazing Brewrista’s cold brew.

Took Jess to Brewristas today for some cold drip. Boss man Kevin was a legend and let us taste all 3 of his brews, the originalCold Brew (which is still my fave), the Brewmonade which I’m liking more every time I try it, and Brewtea which Jess liked the most.

They’re selling so much cold drip that they’re always low on stock! I managed to take home a couple of bottles of Cold Brew though, and Jess took home a bottle of Brewtea! Bzzzzt!

Pub Life Kitchen

Look for this sign! Tucked away on a quiet street in the suburban part of Ultimo.

Krysti and Rob.

publife_polenta
Polenta was about as good as polenta gets.

publife_cheeseburger
I ordered the Cheeseburger, so did Robbie. Krysti and Ved went for The Bird Dorito fried chicken burger.

change
Change?! The entire game has changed!

Pub Life Kitchen. Hands down. Best burgers in Sydney. Robbie, what a find mate. Best cheeseburger I’ve ever eaten in my life, and I took a bite of Krysti’s The Bird burger, crunch explosion! I’ll definitely be back for more!

Hangs with Jess

bookings
Wake & Book! Jess’ new spontaneous nature has me in a spin! We’re off to Melbourne this weekend!

tacos
A quick feed at Hotel Harry.

jess
Yup, both of us cameras out shooting food…

nutella
Got Nutella?!

bose
I’ve been missing music in the bedroom so I bought another Bose bluetooth speaker from JB Hi-Fi. This time I went for a much smaller (and cheaper) unit. I surprise myself for choosing teal over white!

spotty_dotty_nike_roshe
Jess picked up this awesome pair of dotty Roche’s.

blackbetty
Some cold drip goodness and a crofin (yeah that’s right, not a cronut, but a croissant crossed with a muffin of sorts!) from Black Betty Espresso Co.

jesslightbox
Been meaning to buy one of these lightboxes from Typo for a while now but they’ve been out of stock on the black letters (only coloured letters in stock). Today I scored one with black letters and they’ve come down in price by $20 too. I love it!

The Wholesome Pod

My sister has just launched her new business. The Wholesome Pod. She’s always been amazing with cooking, and over the years she’s really nailed the healthy/organic/earthy foods which I find really aesthetically pleasing, and of-course, delicious!

She’s done all the design and photography on her own too! Yes, the creativity runs deep in the Fox family! So proud of her, love the site, her healthy munchies are going to add years to my life! I’m sure she’ll do really well.

Chinese Noodle House

spagbol
Spag bol! LOL.

dumplings
Pork and Chive!

Been a while. Chinese Noodle House at the old Burlington Centre in China Town. I’ve been eating here for a lifetime, and it’s cleaner than ever (I’ve seen them drop dumplings on the floor in the kitchen, pick them up off the floor and throw them back in the tray, no bull!). So good!

Celebrated Mums B’Day (again!) & Australia Day today at my sisters house with her kiddies. I’m drunk on champagne and so full I feel like I’m about to explode.

Happy Australia Day Mum!

mum
Teeee hee hehehe. Happy B’Day Mum! X

Celebrated Mum’s B’Day today (Australia Day every year, albeit one day earlier this year). We’ve not done the hotel/buffet thing in ages. We tried out the re-vamped InterContinental at Double Bay. Not amazing, not terrible either, it is what it is. I actually enjoyed just being at a hotel buffet haha! I love hotel buffets, especially breakfast!

Manpuku

manpuku
Hai!

Was a hot day today, went for a dip at the rock pool with Kimmy and so I was ravenous when I jumped out (like some sort of primal instinct I’m always hungry after a swim!). Despite the heat we went for ramen at Manpuku as I’d been craving ramen for a while. Damn those wavy noodles and that broth, so complex, so good!

Tokyo Bike + Paramount Coffee Project

tokyobike
I’ve been meaning to check out Tokyo Bike ever since they opened up in Darlinghurst, this shop in Surry Hills being their 2nd store.

tokyobike2
Hipster goods everywhere.

tokyobike_brooks
Can’t go wrong with Brooks gear.

waffle
Also finally tried Paramount Coffee Project. I went for the friend chicken/Japanese curry waffle. Waffle was good, curry wasn’t the best Japanese curry I’ve had (expected, really?!).

bun
Nanami went for the steamed pork belly bun with apple slaw.

Finally checked out what the hype was all about. So many hipsters in the building I felt uncool. I went for the fizzy cold brew at Paramount and liked it, very subtle coffee aftertaste but the guys at Brewrista’s in Glebe still have my vote!

Midnight Laksa and a Flying Fish

fish
Reminds me of a dream, where my Arowana was swimming in the up in the corner of my bedroom. Radio controlled fish. A plus of living with a flatmate who’s also into toys!

laksa
Another plus, when his girlfriend makes you a bowl of delicious Laksa when you get up and stroll into the kitchen at midnight.
