Super cool little pizza place in Surry Hills, amazing food with local beers and wines.

Japanese bookshop in the centre of of town. Amazing selection of art books, including a nice selection of independent publications. Lots of fun Japanese magazines, book and stationary. Excellent coffee shop inside too :)

The MCA is situated just in front of the water, with views of the Sydney Opera house and right next to the Harbour bridge. With 3 floors of contemporary art, starting with more emerging artists on the first floor, going up to it's permannent collection on the second and then usually a mindblowing solo show from an established artist or group show. You can finish your visit with a lovely meal and drinks on the fourth floor, which offers some of the best views of Sydney. Pictured here is a photograph taken from Tatsuo Miyajmi's exhibition and his artwork Mega Death.

Best place to go for a late burger and drink. Its small little bar that is super cosy at the back of Redfern Continental. With a disco ball, a neon penis and a pretty good (and pretty cheap) food and drinks menu.

Super nice cafe that runs the whole way through a block in Surry Hills. Awesome food and super fun staff + they have really good coffee. It's big so you always get a place and it's a super chilled atmosphere.
