Foosic Top Five Restaurants of 2012

So, below is a list my favourite places to dine and cheap eats for 2012. Splitting the list into two categories because it’s a little unfair to compare fine dining with a cheap n’ tasty.  Kinda like comparing a Hyundai with an Audi right? There's is no comparison...

The places to dine I guess are places you wouldn’t visit frequently and you would expect to pay anywhere between $30 to $50  for a main meal plus drinks. With Tetsuya’s being the obvious exception (its degustation menu coming in at $210).

Listing my top five cheap eats definitely wasn’t easy. As a person like most peeps busy with the hustle n' bustle of life, I find most of these places listed below fill my natural need for home style cooking without having to dig too deep into my pockets. Being Asian, of course the list toppers are predominately of the Asian kind. There were so many that didn’t make the list (I would've needed a top twenty list!) but these places were always reliable in taste, was is quick and easy to give me the fill I needed before I’m on to the next one…

Tetsuya's

Tetsuya Wakuda please take a bow sir, you are a genius. I am in awe of what you put up. A true taste sensation of Japanese inspired French fare. The restaurant will always sit in the Top 3 Australian Restaurants, it is simply an icon. This has got to be on your wish list of truly great restaurants, it's a big occasion restaurant with a pretty hefty price tag BUT it is worth every hard earned to dine at this place. The restaurant itself looks like a cross between the Thunderbirds House and James Bond's Lair with a stunning outside Japanese Garden viewed from the dining room. The 'House' sits behind a high wall in the middle of Sydney but you wouldn't know there is a major city right outside those walls. The staff are welcoming, extremely professional and invisible when they should be. They all know their stuff, be it food or wine. The Dinner I enjoyed was over 14 courses. Yep 14, and I assure you I left nothing on the plates. Please enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed the meal and if you are ever lucky enough to dine here, I know exactly how you feel when you walk back out those big gates with a full belly and that knowing smile on your face.
