The Crave Sydney International Food Festival is coming up which makes October a great time of year to get out and taste all that Sydney has to offer. Throughout the festival restaurants that are home to some of Sydney's best chefs are offering great deals, keep an eye on the Loving Sydney's Special page as I will do my best to keep these updated or check out the Crave Sydney website for details.
On the 1st to the 2nd of October you can choose to see a wide range of chefs and cuisines in one location at the Festival's World Chef Showcase, a steep $310 for a full day ticket but well worth it for a devoted foodie. If you want to be involved but don't want to part with that much cash however, why not visit the Night Noodle Markets which will be held in Hyde Park North from the 10th to 14th of October and the 17th to 21st of October from 5pm to 9pm. Find out all you will need to know about both events on the Festival's website.
Separately, but still on the subject of incredible dining, I must mention a Surry Hills restaurant I happened upon last weekend. The Nepalese Kitchen at 481 Crown Street offers cheap and delicious Nepalese cuisine in a gorgeous atmosphere. Why not try their signature goat dish, a truly authentic tomato based curry that will leave you wanting for more, and there is plenty more to choose from not in the least including the best momos outside of Kathmandu.
The Nepalese Kitchen is BYO and open from 6pm to 11pm daily. I would recommend booking ahead by calling 02 9319 4264 to avoid disappointment.
