When did you start your food adventures around Sydney?
About two years ago when we made the trek over from WA.

Where is the best place for a boozy brunch on the weekend?
Lucky Suzie! Malaysian style brunch with killer cocktails to match. The guys behind Devon café have sprinkled their magic on this one and it’s worked a charm.

Where would you recommend a visit to on a romantic date?
Olio in Chippendale. Good food, good wine, great atmosphere and white table cloths to top it off.

Where’s a good area to find BYO restaurants?
The suburbs. We always find areas like Redfern, Randwick and the eastern suburbs offer great BYO options.

Which BYOB would you recommend and why?
Mamak! Your favourite wine accompanied by those delicious rotis and only $2 corkage? Nailed it.

Where’s the best place for a light bite in Bondi?
We are huge fans of Porch and Parlour in Bondi. Fresh and tasty food coupled with interesting and intricate wines!

Name your top cheap eat around town for visitors on a budget?
Juicy Lucy Chicken, dumplings and beer.

Where’s your ultimate splurge restaurant?
Bathers Pavilion in Balmoral

If you’re looking for an excellent Sunday Roast where would you head to?
Publife Kitchen. It changes from week to week but also accompanied by great, traditional sides (what’s a roast without a Yorkshire pudding?).

Where in Australia would you head to for a wine tasting experience?
Margaret River – we can’t help it. We will always be WA girls.

What is Two Girls One Fork’s favourite way to spend a Saturday in Sydney?
Long lazy lunches during the day followed by an evening traipsing our way through small bars or Inner West pubs. That or Netflix and Uber Eats!

What are the top 3 things any newbies in Sydney should do to get acclimatised?

1. Eat yum cha at Golden Century with a massive hangover.
2. Take a day trip out to Manly and explore all the pubs.
3. Spend an afternoon shopping the op-shops and boutique store on Newtown’s King Street.
