Food Scene

My favourite French restaurant in all of Sydney. Usually busy with lots of hustle and bustle. So many great dishes: steak frites, cheese soufflé, oysters, bouillabaisse and more. Need to book in advance, there are kid friendly dishes and the staff are always lovely.

Superb little café. Take in the morning sun and watch the world go by. Great wholefood menu, plus the best Campo's coffee. My favorite dish is The Classic Pittwater "Soft poached free-range eggs, brekkie tomatoes, avocado and Persian feta served on wholemeal Emmer sourdough toast, with Nourished goddess"

Excellent fine dinning restaurant for a romantic lunch or dinner. It's reassuringly expensive;-) Amazingly good Sunday roast, with kid friendly menu. An easy walk from the house, well ok you need to get up and down a few hills (plus the driveway) but how else are you going to walk that roast off! As Richard Branson would say "Screw it, let's do it!" Check out https://clarevillekiosk.com.au

Upmarket French dining. Take plenty of $$ and watch out when you order the wine, a misplaced finger could set you back thousands!! Fantastic fresh fish and oysters. If you're after something really special look no further. Only a 15min Uber ride from the house. The restaurant is part of The Newport pub complex so you can keep on going late into the night if you want to. Check out https://merivale.com/venues/berts
