Best Desserts inMay 2021 – I Want Food Sydney – Sydney
"This is one of my personal favourites simply because of how underrated it is. It literally is a hole in the wall along the streets of Newtown. Their Apple Crumble, Coconut, and Tim Tam flavours are known to be amazing, and in the sorbet range, the Champagne or Fresh Pear and Ginger are not to be missed."
"NewtownGelato Blue is Sydney’s first 100% plant-based gelateria, so now everyone can enjoy the frozen treat. Every element is made in house, including the nut mixes that are milled on site. They use a base of coconut milk, and cream to create their 20 vegan gelato flavours, including double-roasted pistachio, and pavlova."
"Hours: Mon-Thu Noon to 11pm, Fri-Sat Noon to Midnight, Sun Noon to 11pmAddress: 318 King Street, NewtownPhone: +6195574707Website: https://www.facebook.com/gelatoblue/. What’s not to love about Gelato Blue?. The range of 25+ flavors is 100% dairy free and compatible with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free diets."
"Meet Gelato Blue, Sydney’s first 100% plant-based gelateria. This bustling spot attracts queues every weekend, slinging top-notch artisan vegan gelato made from scratch."
"In the heart of the bustling Crows Nest restaurant district lies Le Bouchon, a complete Café and Bistro destination that brings a taste of traditional French cuisine to the Lower North Shore. This is one of the best French restaurants in Sydney and features unique decor and an exclusive private function area. Le Bouchon is the perfect place to enjoy an intimate dinner or just a simple after work drinks."
"Used in Lyon to refer to bistros that are well-known for authenticity and conviviality, expect something of this nature from Le Bouchon café and bistro on Willoughby Road in Crows Nest."
"Chef Dan Pepperell and his dream have brought a new wave of French dining to Potts Point. On the menu you'll find boudin noir (blood sausage) spring rolls, escargot pasta and steak frites. Plus, there's a drinks list by the Swillhouse Group's former sommelier."
"Bistrot 916 is not your everyday neighbourhood French bistro. It’s a slice of France smack bang in Potts Point. This place is heavy on the French specialities with almost everything from escargot and lambs brain."
"The slick bar operators from Swillhouse Group (the Baxter Inn, Shady Pines Saloon) have pulled out the big guns to recruit star chef Daniel Pepperell (formerly of 10 William Street and Tetsuya’s) to their new eatery. Pepperell’s famous sardine katsu sando may have been retired in this French bistro, but be ready to be consumed by smart reinventions of classic French recipes like chicken fricassee with shiitake or melon en surprise, the dessert of the year. It’s food that likes wine, and sommelier Andy Tyson’s wine list backs it up big time."
"When you talk about restaurant ambience, every other establishment is striving towards the buzzing atmosphere of Restaurant Hubert. The intimate booth seating, warm candle lighting, soothing music and French-themed decor combine to create a trendy restaurant in Sydney that feels completely detached from the outside world. This is exactly the sort of successful eatery one would expect from Swillhouse group (the bar boys behind the Baxter Inn, Shady Pines and Frankie’s)."
"In our view, taking a tour to Sydney Observatory hill is the second-best spot to capture a great photo of Sydney at night. It’s a million-dollar view offered free to the public. We highly recommend taking an Observatory Sydney night photography tour irrespective how many times you have travelled to Sydney."
"Sydney Observatory is great for kids fascinated by our universe and all things in it. Explore the historic site at Miller’s Point, peek through Australia’s oldest working telescope and discover more about the planets, the galaxy, and beyond. Explore the Sun, Moon and some planets through their telescopes."
"The Sydney Observatory is an Australian landmark offering some of the best views across the city. Entry is free providing access to all of the rooms other than the top observation areas where the telescopes are used for tours. One of the highlights for us was the LEGO room which is also free."
"Built by famous convict architect Francis Greenway, Sydney’s Conservatorium, part of the University of Sydney, began life as a Gothic picturesque stable for Governor Macquarie. Known as “a palace for horses”, the building was so expensive it caused Macquarie to be recalled to Mother England. Today you can visit the building to attend one of the many concerts put on by students or stroll the outside when touring the Botanic Gardens."
"Sydney’s premier music school is on the edge of the Royal Botanic Garden. The building looks like a castle but was actually originally built as stables for the nearby Government House. Because it’s a school, not all areas are open to the public but you can see three levels of the atrium."
