Is This The Best Asian Food in Sydney?
The Dew Drop Cafe at the Nan Tien Temple may just be one of the best Asian cafes in all of Sydney. When I crave original and good quality vegetarian Asian food, there’s no better place than enjoying a delicious yummy lunch of rice noodle soups, shared mixed vegetable bowls or a variety of dumplings, all accompanied with a stunning herbal tea, at Dew Drop cafe. Okay, so this cafe isn’t exactly in Sydney. though if you are heading down south for a drive one weekend, it’s not that far out of Sydney and easily one of the best places to stop in and enjoy delicious Asian cuisine.

But it’s the old Helensburgh railway station which…

Historic Sydney: Exploring Coal Loader in North Sydney
Last week it was Greg’s Birthday, so to celebrate we opted for a historical tour through the old coal loader sustainable site in North Sydney. Located on the Waverton waterfront, Coal Loader is a place to relax, feel inspired, learn about Sydney’s coal history and even grab a coffee and some lunch. It was once the coal industry hub where all the ship transporting coal would dock and unload the coal, where it would be thrown down a chute into a coal mining trolley or minecart, which was sitting on tracks (similar to that of a train track) where it could be easily transported and loaded onto trucks.
