It’s Vegan MoFo Time!
October 1, 2012
Have you heard? It's Vegan MoFo time! Vegan MoFo is short for Vegan Month of Food, and it's a full-on blog-fest in which foodie-bloggers share incredible vegan food recipes and photographs throughout the entire month. There are over 600 beautiful vegan food blogs participating this year, and I can't wait...

October 31, 2011
When my fiance and I moved to Sydney almost three years ago, we tried many of the city's sushi restaurants. From sushi trains to high-end establishments, we searched high-and-low for a spot that was equally good for him (the omnivoire) and I (the vegan). For a while, we were pretty...

October 30, 2011
I had such a lovely day in Sydney today. My fiance and I spent the day with another couple who invited us to join them on a little stroll around Sydney's Paddington and Surry Hills neighborhoods. In the late afternoon, were walking down Crown street and decided to have a...

October 22, 2011
Hi everyone! Today's post is going to be short and sweet, as I've been out all day and I'm heading out in an hour to meet friends for dinner. This afternoon, my man and I spent a few hours on Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach, and then we came home to...

October 21, 2011
Last night, my man and I decided to check out the Night Noodle Markets, which are just one of the events taking place as part of the Sydney International Food Festival. While many of the events aren't very vegan-friendly (don't worry, they've heard plenty from me!), I always manage to...

October 20, 2011
Oh my goodness, I'm so stoked! My Hijiki Tofu Burgers & Carrot Ginger Dressing made the Vegan MoFo roundup yesterday!
That means that along with my Gnocchi Potato Salad with Green Beans & Quinoa, I made the Vegan MoFo roundup twice this week?! I'm super honored!
Many people seemed to enjoy my Vegan...

October 10, 2011
As much as I'd like to, I don't get the chance to visit a farmer's market each week. The truth is that I tend to do most of my shopping at regular grocery stores. In Sydney, this means Woolworth's (Woolie's for short) or Coles. While they don't stock every vegan...
Read the full post Vegans: Eat at Flying Fish!
October 9, 2011
Last night, I had the pleasure of eating at Flying Fish, a fine dining restaurant with breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour at Jones Bay Wharf, Pyrmont. My fiance and I were invited by our friend Anne-Marie who had planned an extravagant all-expenses-paid surprise birthday dinner for her boyfriend Gareth's 30th. It...

September 27, 2011
Today I had the opportunity to attend a luncheon hosted by Mr. Wally Fry, founder and owner of Fry's Vegetarian. Here's some information on the company:
It's a family-owned South African company, whose meat-analog products are available in 23 countries worldwide
Their products are made using premium quality non-GM ingredients, with no artificial...

September 9, 2011
I'm not really good about blogging about my restaurant dinning experiences. I really only get around to it when it's either a really good or really bad experience. I tend to find that most restaurant food is rather basic and/or isn't good value for money. Too many chefs rely upon...
Read the full post Vegans: Eat at Otto Ristorante!
June 7, 2011
Otto Ristorante was on my list of places to eat, and I finally got to try it a few months ago after attending a New Zealand wine tasting event here in Sydney with friends. This is a beautiful restaurant located on the wharf in Woolloomooloo. What's so awesome about this place...

May 30, 2011
Since moving to Sydney, I've eaten at quite a few of the sushi restaurants here. Those that have great fish for my non-vegan friends often have a really poor vegan menu. Most of these places don't even have avocado maki (rolls) on the menu, and I sometimes have to beg...

May 17, 2011
Back in December, I enjoyed a lovely salad of fried cauliflower, chickpeas and silverbeet at Bodega Tapas Bar here in Sydney. It was hardy yet light with highlights of fresh lemon and toasted cumin seeds. As you can tell, I was making a mental note of the ingredients and flavors...

November 26, 2010
Vegan MoFo #26 - I couldn't participate in the Vegan Month of Food blog challenge without mentioning the inspiration that really pushed me to finally get my blog up and running. While I've been a web developer for many years, and a vegan even longer, I never sat down and...
Read the full post Vegans: Eat at Skinny Dip Cafe!
November 21, 2010
Vegan MoFo #21 - The Skinny Dip Cafe in Bondi is my favorite local breakfast place. It's walking distance from home, has many tables outside, and offers great food & coffee. What more could you want on a Sunday morning? I love that they offer tofu scramble as an egg-alternative...

October 12, 2010
Last night, I attended a Champagne Masterclass, as part of the Crave Sydney International Food Festival. The event was sponsored by the Comité Champagne, hosted by Peter Bourne, and located at Justin North's beautiful restaurant, Etch. Along with roughly 25 other people, I embarked on a two-and-a half hour-journey of...

October 11, 2010
So after a rather dismal weekend of eating in Sydney restaurants with poor vegan options (The Winery & Bondi Pizza), I figured that one of the best neighborhoods to head for lunch on Sunday would be Surry Hills, with its eclectic patrons and quaint little cafes. Walking on Crown street, I came...
Read the full post Vegans: Don’t Eat at The Winery!
October 9, 2010
Last night, I went to The Winery, a nice restaurant here in Sydney, Australia. I knew that they didn't have anything vegan on the menu, as I had been there before for drinks and had casually browsed the menu at the time. I therefore had a sneaking suspicion that I...
