even more deliciousness (food part 2)

I won't go on a tirade like I did on the last food post. You know my thoughts & we can move on from there. We had SO many good food experiences in Australia, but I'll just wrap up with a couple more

Chat Thai (Sydney) - holy-shit-this-is-amazing thai food

We were recommended by multiple people to go to Chat, but ignored it for a few reasons. First, the location closest to our hotel was basically in a mall. It was a fancy mall, but still not my thing. Also, it's thai food - we love thai food, but sometimes it gets redundant. We finally gave in on our last full day in Sydney. MIND BLOWN. First of all - while it is busy, they are still super nice, which is somewhat of an anomaly in Australia (typically servers are not rude, just lackadaisical). Second, the menu is a book. While that can be a bit overwhelming, this one has food photos galore, so even if you don't understand the description, there is likely a photo floating around of it somewhere.  It's a step fancier than your run of the mill thai restaurant, so expect gorgeous plates and super fresh ingredients. We got a variety of things, but both agreed that their duck red curry was out of this world. Just the right mix of sweet and spicy - chances are I'll be searching for an equally satisfying dish for life.

Panama House (Bondi Beach) - brunch!

After The Morning Show, we had to run out to Bondi to do one more bit of press. Luckily, we stumbled on this spot and had time to stop in and grab a bloody mary (don't judge us) and some amazing eggs + fun salsas. It reminded me of a Brooklyn-esque spot - simplistic decor, minimal menu. We were more than happy with the results.

  1. You make food that I would not normally eat sound amazing. I need to venture out more.
