I have been several times. It is fun, with different sections, home decor, food, clothes, books, art. The art now is scenery from Sri Lanka. Always popular with the foreigners.
This hands down beats Banh Mi Phuong! The chicken is 25k VND. Mild, medium or spicy. Crusty on the outside and moist on the inside, chicken and pate with veggies with a sauce that is just wonderful.
Insanely busy with several options to choose from. I walked right in to sit down. The picture below is the #5. Bread is moist inside and crusty on the outside filled with delicious pork and veggies.
Try the coconut coffee. It is decadent! I had the squid salad which was delicious. Hey it might be “expensive” but worth every penny with the lovely ambience and music and magical garden.
One of the best dim sum in town with service to match. The food was delectable and delicious. We went for dim sum and unfortunately nothing else, I plan on going back to try the regular menu.
My daily go to place for salads. Healthy, delicious with a variety of veggies to satisfy you post workout. You pick one complex carbs, one protein, three supplements, one topping and one dressing.
I love this beach. It is super chilled, hardly any people, right along the coastal walk. Not to be missed.
Modern Australian with super cute “forest” surroundings. i.e. too cool for school decor. Mezza-esq dishes. We had the tuna tartare, fried chicken sliders, octopus and cauliflower. Will come back.
One of my favorite “quintessential” places to go to. Think Walmart on exotic steroids, full of colors, smells, narrow, and crowded. Rows of food, electronics, clothes, cookware, complete with gold.
I wished I had more time here and will go back the next time I am in Sydney. We paid extra for the Archibald, Wynn and Sulman exhibit and was well worth it. Do it!
Good views of the city. Make sure you make a reservation. There is no air con so dress appropriately. Coconut fried squid, pork rolls, veggies, spring rolls etc.
As my roommate put it, to have that high quality chocolate and pastries like the eclair all under one roof is quite rare in any first world country. The chocolates are divine and delectable. Must go!
Crabs in 10 different ways. Crab soup with noodles, crab spring rolls, crab claws, crab noodles. All delicious. You have to go, unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures this time.
Still stunning service and food after all these years. I went there for lunch. Arugula salad and the broccoli rabe salad with meat.
I had the green salad which was just fantastic. Skip the octopus it was really salty.
The maitre d insisted on the sea bass, and the ceviche. It was perfectly cooked, on top of mashed potatoes in a cream sauce and surrounded with capers and olives to cut the cream. Service was great!
First time at a Peruvian restaurant in Medellin. We had the ceviche de la mer, the salmon salad and the recommended langoustine main entree. The vibe was lively and staff super friendly and helpful.
Dollar oysters from 4 to 6 pm. Fresh delicious oysters which just melt in your mouth.
Cute little hole in the wall ramen place. I had the shoyu spicy ramen which was flavorful and a touch of spice. Delicate cha Shiu and noodles. Yum.
The best artisanal indian ever! Everything was absolutely sublime and well thought out. Highlights: Sunchoke Vada. Entrees: lotus root kofta, picture below, and the salmon. Cheesecake is a must!
Honeycomb ice cream was delicious with little bites of honey comb. Highly recommended.
I did the mindful meditation on Wednesday which was just worth coming to. The museum this summer is really small and targeted towards Tibetan Buddhism.
If you love 1920s American jazz age, go. Beautiful exhibits of Cartier and Tiffany vanity, cigarette cases, along with jewelry and furniture. During prohibition and migration b/w Paris and New York.
We had the salt and pepper squid, rice paper roll duck, banana blossom, pork fried rice and pork belly (which is divine). Super friendly and helpful staff with a separate vegan and gluten free menu.
We had the bento box for brunch. Everything was delicious, except the chicken and rice. Ambience is trendy (a bit much) but reminds me of sushi samba in NYC when it first opened in the early 2000.
