Sydney Restaurants: Where To Eat in Sydney

This is a guest post written by Leon Levy
Sydney Opera House, Australia
Australia’s cultural hub, Sydney is famous for the iconic Opera House, swanky harbour and the white sands of Bondi beach. My destination Sydney has it all – sun, sea, surf as well as great bars and nightlife, a vibrant artistic and cultural scene and excellent public transport links in which to tour the city.

Sydney has all the gastronomic experiences one would expect from a world class travel destination. In fact Sydney restaurants have so much high class as well as affordable dining opportunities on offer the choice can be bewildering at first.

The choice and quality of international cuisine in Sydney is such that you may struggle to find anything that would call itself authentically, “Australian” – which would be a shame as modern Australian cuisine is enjoying something of a renaissance. Check out the Lincoln, Flyting Fish and Oscillate Wildly.

Food in Sydney- spaghetti with prawnsThe Italian immigrant community has left its stamp with the best old school Italian restaurants in Sydney being executive orientated Machiavelli on Clarence Street for the high-flyers or Bar Italia on Norton Street where for $15 you can enjoy a meal at a lively and bustling home to Italian cuisine.

Korean BBQ restaurants such as Ssam in Newtown have stormed onto the Sydney restaurant scene where you’ll get sizzling meat wrapped in lettuce leaves served with a bottle of excellent Korean beer – great for cooling off.

French bistros such as Ad Lib offer casual and affordable dining, the Bronte Rd Bistro offers that taste of French home cooking thanks to the hard work of the husband and wife team who run this cosy establishment and there is Baraque (or “the Rocks” as it’s known to regulars) who’s franchises are fancy, pricey at $25 for a plat du jour, but excellent.

Hotel accommodation in Sydney varies from $15 a night for a shared dorm at a typical backpacker haunt like the Asylum Sydney near the Opera House, Beached at Bondi Accomodation near – you guessed it – Bondi Beach or Balmain Backpackers known for its friendly and social atmosphere. Alternatively there are mid-range options like the Bayswater for $100 a night or the even more expensive, but luxurious Quay Grand Suites with relaxing garden views from $250 a night for a one bedroom apartment.

Whatever you budget and taste Sydney has something great to offer every traveller.  Click here for more information on Sydney.
