Food Scene
Wonderful place to eat or have a cocktail, the food is Japanese Fusion - book to avoid disappointment or turn up early as they keep tables for walk-ins. Very cool and popular with the 30 somethings locals.

This restaurant has wonderful views up the harbour and delicious contemporary Japanese food. Make sure to ask for a seat on the balcony if the weather is good. We thought it quite reasonable unlike the other Sake venues.

Take a walk, cycle or drive up to North Head. Take in the stunning views out through Sydney Heads and Sydney. Call into the Visitor Centre located at North Fort for more information and ask for directions to the Australian Memorial Walk. Stop at the cafe at the top for coffee, breakfast or lunch or visit the Quarantine Station on your way back down the hill. Be sure to visit the new Fairfax Lookouts - rebuilt after a bushfire - they are stunning as are the views.

The Rocks area is the traditional home of the Gadigal people, and the place of first European settlement in Australia. From the roughly-laid cobblestone laneways, the solid wooden beams in the warehouses, and the crushed cockle shells that make up the mortar between huge and hand-carved sandstone bricks, The Rocks is well worth a visit. As far as Australian history is concerned, this is about as historic as we get. There are markets every weekend.
