Song Huong, Riverwood, Sydney West

It was once possible to find a decent pho for $10 (or under) around Sydney. These days, places where you can find this Vietnamese staple for a tenner are few and far between. Lucky for us, there is still Song Huong out towards the West

Back in the day, Hurricanes was exclusive to Bondi but over the years the mouth-watering rib focused restaurant has expanded to many other locations. One of these locations is in Brighton Le Sands. It is literally on the main street right off the beach and

Something different on Beamish street, Campsie. Not sure if its a new place or if I’ve just never noticed it, but it is a Sichuan restaurant. Serving spicy Sichuan cuisine, it seems one of the key attractions is that you can BYO drinks with no

We really wanted to try Hu Tong dumplings which is located on the same street as Shanghai Street dumpling, but it was packed and we were turned away by the waiter (somewhat rudely actually). Luckily we saw Shanghai street dumpling which also had a long

We stayed at a pretty cool Air BnB on Rose Lane in Melbourne. It was the first time using Air BnB and the whole process was pretty straight forward and the apartment was spacious, with 2 bedroom and 2 bathrooms for a much cheaper price
