Sydney “world’s best place to eat”

The LA Times food critic has written that Sydney is the number one place to eat, with superb locations and excellent food. She said “The best Australian chefs have caught the soul of a cuisine, so whatever they cook rings true…. Funny thing is, Sydney seems to do practically every other genre spectacularly well too. So much so that this city of 3 million has become a mecca of sorts for anybody serious enough about food to get on a plane and fly 16 hours to get here.”
