I went to Sydney for work in January and needless to say, the food was AMAZING.
My late lunch at the Flyover Fritterie and Chai Bar in Redfern - just one of the many amazing things I ate on my Sydney trip!
I've been vegan for just over a year and while I wasn't short of options in Sydney, I did need to know where to go and do a bit of research beforehand. Many "best Sydney vegan eats" articles and Youtube videos I came across were pre-pandemic and so sadly, but not surprisingly, many places I liked the sound of were no longer in operation. Which meant searching out on my own, and I found some incredible places!
As I ate my way around the city and slowly amassed a list of must-trys, places I definitely wanted to return to with Tom on our next trip, I thought that surely this information would be useful for others too.
I’ve never quite lost my journalistic instinct - I pitched the idea to Sandi at Onya, and she said yes almost immediately! This made me extremely happy because “pitch something to Onya” has been on my writing resolutions list each year since about 2011!
My favourite Sydney vegan eats is available to read now, and excitingly I’ve got a whole vegan series for Onya in the works. I’ve just filed Melbourne and Hobart, unsurprisingly, will be next. I hope you enjoy!
