A Night in Sydney - Crows Nest

https://www.thefoxtrot.com.au/the-foxtrot-gallery

Sydney has many great places to spend your night - this weekend I spent a night in Crows Nest and discovered a cosy little nook on Sydney's North Shore.

Starting the night at Small Bar we sat down to shared plates of soft tacos and grilled halloumi paired perfectly with a friendly and warm atmosphere. With fairy lights and vines overhead, it truly felt as if we were sitting in a courtyard a million miles away from the rest of the world.

Continuing on with the evening, we left our courtyard dinner behind and entered The Hayberry - a rock n roll bar with character in every brick. Looking around you can see all kinds of paraphernalia as you sit down with your choice of their selection of craft beers, ciders, wines or house cocktails. While rock n roll runs through this bar the staff are accommodating in every way and are more than happy to chat to you about this funny little bar and all it has to offer.

Our next move was towards our cosiest encounter yet. The Foxtrot Inn lies within what used to be someone's home, it's quirky aesthetic of old furniture only adds to it's already homely feel. The Foxtrot Inn offers a rather large selection of cocktails, spirits and wine, this is where The Foxtrot Inn truly shines as their bartenders will always find the right drink for you with little to no information.

The last place on our list was for some the best part of the night. As we sat down in C9 Chocolate and Gelato we were greeted by an array of strange and delicious flavours from nutella to rose ice cream which intrigued our minds and satisfied our taste buds. This was such a great way to end the night and it's safe to say, I'd happily return to Crows Nest again for its diverse and cosy set of restaurants and bars.

What Sydney Means to Me

Image
Throughout our last few posts, we've discussed what to see and do, but not necessarily a personal connection. Sydney is a global city, who has developed and moved into the future alongside those who both live here and visit. Sydney's culture is broad, both traditionally Australian and able to connect on a broader, global scale. From nights out, to looking for something special for a close friend or current romantic interest; to attending concerts and other events. Sydney has been an integral part of my personal life, and I'm very happy to have posted about a few things to see and do when visiting. It's impossible to cover everything, so my most succinct Sydney Advice is this: see it for yourself, wander around, experience it without just referring to tips, or lists. Obviously, these help sharpen direction and offer a launching point, but don't use them exclusively. Photo by Blake Sydney is an adventure, but also something relatable and familiar. Don't be

Macquarie Centre - Event Cinemas

Image
Macquarie Centre is one of Sydney's, and the countries largest shopping centre. It serves as a major hub, as it serves the shopping and transport needs for the North Sydney. The introduction of the Sydney Metro will only strengthen its importance within the Northern Sydney region. URL Macquarie Centre contains 275 stores, all arranged in a twisting, maze-like staircase. There are a vast array of stores, ranging from international department stores, to small food shops. The centre also contains a range of activities, including one of the few ice skating rinks in Sydney, and a cinema. Event Cinema's is found near the vast array of restaurants that you see upon entry. The cinema contains a large snack bar, and a gold class lounge, where people can have a few drinks prior to their movie. I watched Avengers: Endgame in one of the many showings they have daily for it. The seats were comfortable, however they didn't compare to the higher quality reclining seats found at

Manly Beach

Hey everyone! So, last week I introduced you to the iconic 'Bondi Beach', but this week I'll open your eyes to another Sydney icon: Manly Beach! https://makeagif.com/gif/a-little-bit-of-sunday-at-manly-beach-XgyKno Manly beach is amongst the Northern Beaches of Sydney and was home to the world's FIRST surfing competitions in 1964. So how can you get to this lovely place? It's as easy as hopping on a ferry from Circular Quay which will drop you to the Manly ferry dock in about 30 minutes! Whether you're there for the water or for the view there is plenty to do! Here are a few of my top suggestions (click on the link for more details: 1. Walk the Manly to Spit Walk : 10km scenic coastal walk that should take around 3-4 hours to complete the track. 2. Learn to Surf : I recommend top rated Sydney Surf School for individual or group lessons (all ages). 3. Climb the Grotto Point Lighthouse : Located on a headland near Dobroyd Head you'll find the &#
