Given their many years covering food (Ardyn is currently the national editor of Good Food, Ros is […]

New podcast – Myffy Rigby, Good Food Guide and Good Food Month

Since I last talked to Myffy Rigby, she’s left Time Out Sydney (and boy did she go out memorably – one of her last hurrahs was an incident involving a nude bartender and the dog track). As a follow-up act, she became the current editor of the Good Food Guide and the creative director of Good […]

Good Food Guide 2014

In the lead up to the Good Food Guide 2014 Awards, editor Joanna Savill said there would be some big “oooooooh” moments. And while some heavy-hitting restaurants lost hats in a much remarked-upon way, there were lots of upsides as well. It was excellent to see Ross Lusted of The Bridge Room take out Chef […]

Sydney Good Food Awards 2013

As I write this, there are probably Sydney Good Food Award-winners still toasting their victories and (rightfully) testing how much celebrating their liver can take. There was a whirlwind of new hatted entries at this year’s event (and, accordingly, in the new 2013 edition of the Good Food Guide) – major congrats to all of […]

Good Food Guide 2012

Sequels are meant to be disappointing, but my second year reviewing for Good Food Guide was infinitely more fun than any overlong Hollywood franchise. My “places to cover” list took me from Cabramatta to Palm Beach and I was even lucky enough to write up two restaurants that ended up in the hat-earning categories. The […]

Good Food Guide 2011

One of the nicest surprises I’ve had as a food blogger has been this – getting asked to be part of the review team for the latest Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide. The book has just had its hot-pink debut – it was launched just a few hours ago at the Good Food Awards, […]

About

Hi, I'm Lee Tran Lam. When not blogging with my mouth full, I'm usually writing, presenting Local Fidelity on FBi radio, making zines, producing podcasts or continually breaking promises about how I really am gonna get through my book pile one day.

All the good pictures on this blog are by photography ace (and patient boyfriend), Will Reichelt, (all the dodgy ones can be credited to me)!

The lovely banner is by friend and ultra-talented illustrator Grace Lee.

This site redesign was made possible by the next-level generosity and expertise of Daniel Boud, whose code-tinkering ways are only outranked by his seriously inspired way with a camera.

You can read more about my co-conspirators here.

This is a blog I do for pure fun and zero influence – there's no sponsorship, sneaky advertorial or advertising. I pay for all the food mentioned, 'cos it seems the ethical thing to do.


About

This is a blog about eating and drinking in Sydney, Australia (with the odd cross-border or off-topic detour). BYO appetite.
