3 days, 3 nights, 32km, 14 incredible women, several bottles of wine, 1 skinny dip, multiple penguin and seal encounters, 1 extinct volcano, lots of sheep poop, 0 Hobbits.
The Banks Track is New Zealand’s original private, multi-day walking trail located on the Banks Peninsula, South Island where you walk over an extinct volcano, through working farmlands, and along rugged coastlines. You start and finish in the cute town of Akaroa.
I highly recommend it!
We tried a pizza that tastes like tiramisu! 🍕☕
The Pizza ‘Misù at @amaresydney is exactly what it sounds like, and somehow even better than you’re imagining. But that’s just one reason you need to know about Pizza’Mare, the brand new pizza and pasta restaurant from Alessandro and Anna Pavoni.
We sat down with Alessandro and Anna to ask them their favourite dish on the menu, what they’re drinking, and what they get up to when they’re not running one of Sydney’s most exciting restaurant groups.
📍 Pizza’Mare at a’Mare, Barangaroo 🔖 Save this, and watch the full reel for our chat with Alessandro and Anna.

It feels like everyone is talking about this new opening, and we can see why.
@thejamessydney has opened at @langhamsydney and is a bold, modern expression of British dining in Millers Point. The fit-out is absolutely stunning.
The food includes reimagined classics like their signature dish - the beef Wellington served tableside for a touch of theatre, their knickerbocker glory, and a rice pudding soufflé we can’t stop thinking about.
The James is one of the best openings in Sydney this year. You have to try it.
Sake shots from a giant paddle, live grilling at the bar, and a crumb maki roll you’ll be thinking about for days. 🍶
Meet @kodasydney - a Japanese izakaya-style spot from the team behind @tokorestaurant tucked in the city with open windows and good vibes.
Save this for your next after-work plans.
Marrying @clegget88 was up there with the top 3 best days of my life. Looking back at these photos I still get goosebumps and a big smile. Can definitely recommend eloping to Queenstown.
My playbook below in case anyone is thinking about doing the same! I wouldn’t change a single thing about this magical day.

Farewell @quayrestaurant !
Last night we had the honour of sharing last drinks at one of Australia’s most iconic restaurants of all time @chefpetergilmore has been executive chef for almost 25 years. During that time he retained 3 Chefs Hats for 23 consecutive years and had hundreds of remarkable chefs work alongside him.
What an incredible achievement. 👏🏻
What’s next for Peter Gilmore? Watch this space 😉
We headed down to Coogee for the opning night of @ricksteinatcoogeebeach 🌊🍽️
…and yes, we got to chat with @chefRickStein himself.
We asked him his ultimate eat, drink and play, and now we’re officially counting down the days until we head back in to try his favourite dish: the lobster thermidor 🦞✨
Have you been to the restaurant yet? Let us know what you thought 👇

@chefgiovannipilu has opened a new Italian restaurant at Circular Quay. @flaminia_sydney is inspired by the neighboring port side cities of Italy. Think seafood, iconic views and a dish that’s designed for two but you’ll want to eat all to yourself.
Been to Flaminia already? What did you think?
WHERE IS MY HUSBAND??
Took 33 years to find him, 5 years engaged, 2 kids, a move to the burbs. Finally made it official 😆
*He was worth the wait.
Queenstown 20th December 2025 👰♀️ 🤵
