Our favourite local, which is one part cafe, and one part men's fashion store (but really, mostly a cafe). Go for the solid coffee and updated Malaysia cafe dishes. The roti john is our favourite.

Real-deal Thai food in a no-nonsense space. It's an easy walk from the apartment. Try to prawn choo chee, massaman beef, and the pork belly nam prik. But really, everything is good here. If the heat gets to you, cool it down with a fresh coconut drink.

This amazing subterranean French-ish restaurant takes the brasserie concept to top heights. Amazing vibe, topnotch service and a terrific wine and whiskey list. It's French with flair, but not any pomp, and maybe a hint of Asian twists to the classics.

This bakery-cafe is one of my favourite Bondi stops, and is a 10-minute walk away from the beach, so the bustling spot has more of a Sydneysider feel (but it's Bondi, so people are from all over the world). Quality shakshuka.

If you want to see a proper Sydney food market, come here on any given Sunday. It's a very creative, Inner West vibe, and I also have one of my most popular Brooklyn Boy Bagels stalls here. There's always live music around, and great cheap finds at adjoining Reverse Garbage.

One of the best new cafes in Sydney, Matinee is a sweeping space with a bit of a 1950s Venice Beach feel. The menu is inspired, as is the decor. It's off the beaten track, but worth the Uber ride.

It's a scene, but it's the best way to take in Coogee after a beach day, or the Bondi-to-Coogee walk. Bring deodorant, since there are some beautiful people around. If someone lets their paddle down, nab one of the pingpong tables before or after some woodfired pizza or raw bar action.

It's some of the best Malaysian food in Sydney. The atmosphere is as sexy as a school canteen, the service as smiling as nuns, but the taste and price make it worthwhile. Try the nasi lemak with beef rendang, the loh shi fun, the marmite pork ribs (really) and wash it all down with some hot teh tarik.

Great views of the harbour, and a nice leafy stroll to the Sydney Opera House. Make sure to find the bats (aka flying foxes) chilling out by day, waiting to feed on native date trees by night.

The best beach in the city that's reachable by public transport. It faces north, so it's always protected and flat. There's also a great cafe next to the beach. Very tropical feel, to boot.

It's an iconic beach. The northside is calmer, the south side has the great waves. Go have a swim and a sauna at Icebergs pool, grab brunch nearby, and maybe stick around for hanging out at the "Grassy Knoll" on the north end later in the day and watch the sunset.

It's the city's biggest icon. Book in a show if you have some spare time. Opera is in the name, but I prefer the music, theatre and talk options (anything from TEDx to the Festival of Dangerous Ideas).
