@chocolatesuze Whole pig on a spit #tommysbeercafe #sucklingpig #pigonaspit #glebe #sydney #sydneyrestaurants ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze It’s my birthday! And since it was a milestone birthday the husband bought me a whole suckling pig and I invited some friends for a porkfest. The pig is marinated in dark beer, then rotisserie-cooked for 7 hours on a wood-fire spit. There were some snacks while we waiting for the pig to finish up, bread and pretzels with dips and also these golden fried button mushrooms served with pickled gherkin aioli. The chef then carves and serves plate after plat ..read more

@chocolatesuze Who else loves sardines #sydney #redfern #spanishfood #sydneywinebar #sydneyrestaurants ♬ Do It Better – Beachcrimes & Tia Tia I’m always on the hunt for a good wine bar and La Salut in Redfern ticks all the boxes for delicious snacks with pretty well priced beverages. The Catalan-inspired bar has a menu with a seafood focus and we start off with anchovy, tomato and manchego on a Fabbrica cracker followed by a plate of plump sardines with eggplant and pickled onion. The salmon belly pincho is a must order, the salmon is so incredibly juicy and fatty and goes so well with th ..read more

@chocolatesuze I need more ganjang gejang in my life #strathfield #sydney #ganjanggejang #crab #sydneyrestaurants ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze On my search for more Ganjung gejang which are raw crabs marinated in soy sauce I stumbled upon HANGANG by Mama Park in Strathfield. The banchan is excellent and first out is the sizzling corn with molten cheese followed by spicy soft tofu soup. We didn’t want to share the crabs so had ordered one each. The taste was just incredible, briny but sweet and just so umami. Squeeze out the crab meat onto some rice and enjoy. Oh and be sure to fill the hea ..read more

@chocolatesuze Meat dress #spiceworld #sydney #chinatown #hotpot #sydneyrestaurants #wagyu ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze Whenever it rains or it starts getting cooler I start craving hotpot. Spice World in Chinatown is one my fave spots, so much so that I ate here twice in the past week so video is combined from these visits. I always love customising my dipping sauce, there’s suggested combination notes if you’re stuck but I always love a heap of coriander, garlic, sugar, a little chilli paste and sesame oil. Order your soup base and ingredients off the QR code and wait for the robot to d ..read more

@chocolatesuze I miss kaya toast #melbourne #kaya #melbournefood #melbournerestaurant #kueh #kuih ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze It has been more than 5 years now since I’ve last been back to Malaysia so when I was in Melbourne I knew I had to go to Raya in Little Collins St. For breakfast of champions, soft poached eggs with kaya toast. I’m not sure how everyone else eats this but I normally eat the kaya and butter centre of the toast first and then use the crusts to dip into the eggs with pepper and soy sauce. Special mention to the tehtarik as well which was light and frothy. The sardine ..read more

@chocolatesuze Amazing roasted duck #sydney #hotelcentennial #woollahra #duck #sydneyrestaurant ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze I have been obsessed with duck for the past few months and one of the best I’ve had in Sydney is at Hotel Centennial in Woolahra. The roasted duck for two is $150 and there’s usually a 30min wait as it roasts. Once done our waiter brought the glossy duck to our table for us to bask in its glory before returning to the kitchen to slice up and return. The duck breasts are served with peppers and comes with a little saucepan filled with rich jus. The duck itself is so j ..read more

@chocolatesuze Bar Copains #surryhills #sydney #sydneyrestaurants #sydneybars ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze Named after the French word for ‘friends’, Bar Copains is Sydney’s newest wine bar and with Morgan McGlone from Belles and Nathan Sasi previously from Nomad in the kitchen vou just know the food will be amazing. We start off with the perfect drinking snack, whipped cod’s roe with salty potato chips and then choux buns filled with a delicious comte custard and a touch of mustard. The pigs head fritti is golden and crunchy on the outside, fatty and juicy on the inside, with the briny p ..read more

@chocolatesuze Square pizzas are my new obsession #cityoltra #pizza #sydney #centralstation #squarepizza #sydneyrestaurants ♬ original sound – ChocolateSuze Things are changing on Eddy Avenue at Central Station! The precinct is getting a whole bunch of new tenants from candle makers, florists and even a radio station but what I was most excited for is City Oltra, a pizza and gin bar with Drew Huston, previously from Dimitri’s. Pizza is available by the slice but we were hungry and decided to order the whole 16inch pizza. The Sweethearts had artichoke puree, artichoke hearts, gorgonzola and hon ..read more

Lenny Briskets has the best sandwiches and I would religiously follow their food truck around town all of last year. They’ve recently opened a bricks and mortar store in Darlinghurst and I could not be happier. Take a seat at the counter and enjoy dinner and a show, not only are their sandwiches delicious but they have the CORRECT meat ratio, let me show you. This is the New Amsterdam with bbq briske ..read more
