When I was in Sydney I tried a couple of curry places in Crow's Nest. The only reason we ate out in Crow's Nest was because that is where we were staying and they were easy to get to.

My brother was going to take us to that vegetarian yum cha place you have mentioned in another thread......but we just ran out of time.

In general, I found Sydney very expensive when it came to eating out.

Yeah what a view there is from up there, did you freak out?

Antony:D

[Roxy]

Nah - no freaking out. They were beautiful views though! I really loved Sydney. Next time we are in Sydney we are planning to rent an apartment or stay in a hotel for a week to 10 days, in Manly. My boyfriend and I both really loved Manly.

This thread is just great.. Thanks all you guys.. I am going to Australia early next year in February - march (when it is summer there... wheeee) I get to beat the horrible British winter.!! I am going to use the information here for eating out. Great thread! :)

Manly, or as Sydney folk call it, "Blacktown by the Sea" is a nice place to visit. :D

They have a ghost tour at Manly, I been on it twice, it is in an old hospital that is on the North Head of the harbour, they used to keep people there in case they had any diseases before they let them into the community what do they call that thing.... ah yes the manly quarantine station. It's great fun if you don't believe in ghosts and if you do you'll be freeeeaking out. I toool my neices the second time, 13 yrs old, where they spooked. But I was the tough uncle cause I don't think there are any ghosts and I walked into all the dark rooms and tunnels first. They give you lamps to carry round as it is pitch black (they do it at night) so it's not a restraunt but it's a bit of fun.


I came back to edit and putthis link in that I found

My brother has done that ghost tour twice and his girlfriend wet her pants a little bit the last time that they went because she got such a fright when doors in the shower block started slamming by themselves!!!!

We did the ghost tour through The Rocks. It wasn't scary like the Quarantine Station one, but it was very informative and great if you like to know about the history of the area. We also got to to inside a building where there is an archeological dig going on in the basement. It was soooo interesting!

Yesterday I went for lunch at this new place in High Street Armadale called Erthfoods. Not vegetarian/vegan, but VERY vegan friendly and very accomodating. They have vegan choccie cake, polenta slice, potato pizza amongst many other stuff. I had a yummy lentil-chickpea burger, minus the mayo but with ketchup. The stuff is all whole foods and mostly organic. They also have fresh squeezed sugar cane juice, but I passed on that coz I had a filling a few weeks ago :D

How cool, I pass through there once in a while on the way to rels in QLD and the only place I could ever find was that berry place outside twon but since they changed hands a few years ago they stopped having things that we would want to eat. I'll have to try this place next time I am up that way

Armadale in Melbourne. I know many other states have Armadales too :D

oh well, i was excited

[Imapeach]

Not sure if it's already been mentioned, but worth a reminder!

Adelaiders:

The Lizard Lounge on Hindley street does a vegan curry and a vegan(ised) nacho dish is available too :)

also, I've been eating a lot at the Vegetarian Garden in Mansions arcade just off Pulteney street recently and it's totally vegan and so convenient (for me at least, as a student). but very unhealthy, deepfriend etc. But when you're cold and hungry, that doesn't matter one bit!


I took my mum a curry from the Pure Vegan stall the other day for lunch, and she held up the gluten steak and said "WHAT is this???" She had a very hard time believing it was vegan :) I love my ma :)

Also near Adelaide is 'Golden Nature' on Beach Road, Christies Beach.

Fully vegan eatery & grocery. Well priced nice meals, they do not use any animal products at all in their cooking (they do not even use onion or garlic)
Friendly staff & the owner does free cooking demo's (my kids loved the veg patties he taught me how to make)
Thoroughly recommend it (I have no commercial link to the business)

There is a new Vegetarian restaurant opened in King St Newtown which is in Metropolitan Sydney for those out of towners. It's called GREEN PALACE. Most of the menu items looked vegan to me and they did very nice things with the veges. Which is an important thing I think.

Bendigo has bugger all. The veg cafes have closed - Findings and wholesome bean (no longer veg). Even Castlemaine nearby's veg restaurant 'the screaming carrot' has closed.:(

We now have nothing so it is yours truely's ambition to open one in the future. There must be more veg*ns than just me in this town :)

Theres a vegan cafe in Brisbane called The Forest - Its mostly organic and all the food is vegan and super tasty, with a high emphasis on nutrition and food combining, as well as offering gluten free choices. It has a very relaxed atmosphere with nice tunes playing as well as live music and soon with certified organic booze...!

[blue-and-yellow]

The Lizard Lounge on Hindley street does a vegan curry and a vegan(ised) nacho dish is available too :)

Yes! The Lizard Lounge is a great place! They're very accommodating, have great deals, food and live music. They really need support too, they have been very close to shutting down for a while now. I definitely suggest the Lizard Lounge.:p
