We have driven past that tiny strip of shops at Erina Heights a million times but never really pay much attention to it. Unless you’ve been tipped off by friends [...]

I’ve been longing to visit Restaurant Arras ever since I’ve read many excellent reviews by food bloggers. But for a lazy moi, its location at Walsh Bay is definitely the major hindrance for an earlier visit. Earlier in March this year, with a little more effort and finally found myself in the restaurant having an [...]

Can’t exactly remember when I first heard about Attica, but the idea of a chef collecting seaweed and wild flowers at the beach and in the bush then use it in the restaurant had me intrigued. Then I saw Ben Shewry, the head chef of Attica on stage with René Redzepi at the Opera House, [...]

During our trip to Adelaide for Tasting Australia, Helen and I have some free time in our itinerary to do our own thing, but we thought why waste it when we can have lunch with Stephanie Alexander at The Manse, one of the finest dining restaurants in Adelaide? The manse is a little bit further [...]

Hunger for the WOAP. Please forgive my ignorance, I have to admit that I actually never heard of them but on the other hand, John was rather excited to check out Logan Brown when we found out that it is one of the restaurants we are going to visit during our trip to New Zealand [...]

Welcome to the S of A. South Australia, has opened its door to welcome everyone to this beautiful city of churches, gardens or something a little bit more attractive to a food enthusiast like me, – the surrounding wineries. “Over 200 cellar doors on your doorstep”, a promising slogan of the new South Australian Tourism [...]

The Pom was on a road trip and the first thing he told me was that he might not be back for his birthday dinner which I had planned a week prior. I was upset because my sneaky plan of using The Pom’s birthday as an excuse to get myself dining in a chef’s hatted [...]

Little did you know that A Table For Two actually turned one just over a month ago before I left for my vacation. I would like to thank you all for your support by keep dropping by at my little humble food blog regularly since day one. Especially the Sydney Foodbloggers who I’ve met and [...]

Congratulations Julie! Over 3.7 million viewers tuned in to watch the cook off battle between Julie Goodwin and Poh Ling Yeow on last night’s Masterchef Australia finale.

The porking saga continues… Enough of pork porn already, I hear you say. But when there is a 1.2kg of moisture-infused of pork rack sitting in the fridge, and the long weekend coming right up; I can’t help but the only one thing cross my mind is to shove this little baby into oven and [...]

“My name is Billy, and I am from A Table for Two,” I said. “Oh sorry, this is a private function tonight,” she replies totally unaware that I’ve just stated my foodblog’s name to RSVP myself at the Australian Pork Yuletide Dinner at Restaurant Atelier this evening. Classic! We both burst out laughing at our [...]
