Something fishy is happening in Potts Point. But rest assured, it all sounds fresh and appetising. Good Living recently reported that the foodie rumblings were true; chef Jeremy Strode will temporarily stride away from Bistrode CBD and give recently-closed Lotus Bistro a complete sea change, transforming it into The Fish Shop. With the idea for the new venture coming from “a fish shack” that owner Justin Hemmes goes to in New Zealand, they could be onto a tasty, catchy thing. On the menu, it sounds like we can expect: fish pie, fish curry, blue-eye fish fingers, and of course, beer-battered fish. [click to continue…]

These super cute heart-shaped utensils might be the sweetest things I’ve ever seen. Cleverly designed by Fatima Fazal, Heart Part cutlery sets are part fork, part knife and part spoon. They come in five awesome colours (fluoro orange!) and each packet – an absolute steal at only $10 a pop – gives you 10 complete hearts that become 20 when split and given to a loved one. And they’re also environmentally friendly; made from 66% less plastic than regular cutlery and 100% biodegradable. All that’s left to do is simply break a Heart Part and get to sharing food with your special valentine.

I heart ice cream at the beach, puppy dogs and Heart Part utensils. What do you heart?

What is Wok+Wine, you ask? Well it involves a wok and it involves wine. And it is quite possibly the world’s most delicious social network. Here’s the deal: 40 people, 40 pounds of jumbo prawns, 40 bottles of wine, one long communal table, a secret location – and that’s it! What comes from this mix of essential ingredients is nothing short of social magic. Some impressive connections, friendships and relationships have been forged through W+W simply because people took a chance and decided to enjoy the head of a prawn instead of throwing it away – rip, lick, bite, suck, as the Wok+Wine phrase goes.

What a gorgeous table setting – put me there, pronto! I’m loving the effortlessly chic ‘thrown together’ look. From the Aztec print cushions and the mis-matched glassware to the low dining table fashioned from a shipwrecked plank of wood. There’s a guitar waiting patiently to be strummed and a jug of fresh flowers placed centrepiece for good decorating measure. Nothing matches, every item came from a different place, but they all belong harmoniously right here, together on this table.

So let’s get daydreaming. It’s high noon and sunlight blankets the white sand beach as far as the eye can see. Our designer sunglasses light up and sparkle as if they’re made of mirror and glitter, but they’re simply reflecting the gentle waves rippling in front of us. The air is warm, the water is turquoise blue and there’s not another soul in sight – it’s our own private deserted paradise. We’re relaxing island-style; lounging on sun chairs, sipping on young coconuts, starting to feel sleepy when all of a sudden… [click to continue…]

There is something wildly satisfying about walking into a swanky restaurant and casually ordering one of each dish on the menu. That moment of dead silence as the waiter digests your demand, the corners of his mouth quickly turning up into a grin, the mutual excitement over the ensuing feast.

Well, this is something we’ve not done before, but all of us at WAH-HQ were agreed we needed to.
For most of you overseas this isn’t news, but for us all the way down here in Australia where Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream has just arrived ashore, this is something to drool over.

A few weeks ago one of the girls brought in a tub of B&J’s Tripple Fudge Choc Extravaganza (or whatever it’s called). It lasted about 14 seconds. It was like we had al been bitten by ice-cream vampires, and now that we had a taste for it….

We interrupt this blogcast (broadcast) with some breaking news: Serendipity premium ice cream have a factory outlet store in Sydney’s inner-west. That’s right, sweet toothed dessert lovers; the days of forking out for full retail prices are over. You can now get your iced dessert fix for puny pocket change. And since you’re only paying peanuts, take away as much as your tastebuds desire (or as much you can physically carry) to ensure 24-hour access to your chilled addiction. Not that we’re promoting weird or excess consumption of ice cream. Oh wait, we kind of are… Anyway, back to the ice cream. With TV shows like MasterChef breeding a nation of foodies, dessert is big business, and the Serendipity folks mean business. At any given time they can have up to 100 flavours in stock like durian, gin & tonic, or passionfruit and chilli. Other lick-worthy frozen specialities include the Splice Pyramid or the Saffron & Almond Kulfi Spire. And, as if that wasn’t enough sugar-laced excitement, they also run ice cream making classes. Yes, I just drooled a little too.
