Jason KingWelcome to a brand new Sydney Table
February 15th 2008 08:16
I am no cook, but with an appetite for different cuisines and flavours, I do consider myself a bit of a foodie whom roams around Sydney looking for some unique styles and inspirations from different restaurants and cafes.
Therefore, my decision to take over the ownership of this blog, Sydney Table is so I can share some of my observations and recommendations of the many places around Sydney.
Although, still new with food review, I do welcome your comments and feedback on my posts so that I can get better at it each time!
Actually, with this first post I'd just like to share something one of the members of Toastmasters International shared in one of his speeches. His speech title was "Who needs multiculturalism anyway?" and begins with... "The curry was great yesterday, and my Sushi roll was extremely satisfying at lunch. I am really looking forward to the stir fry tonight, and on Saturday mates and I will be going along to a Brazilian restaurant to try out some exotic tastes..."
And his conclusion? "It's because of multiculturalism that we are able to sample the cuisines of the world in just one country. It's multiculturalism that brought us together and learn to tolerate the flavours of different corners of the world. Who needs multiculturalism? We all do."
I reflect on how lucky we all are being able to access to many authentic traditional foods from different ethnic backgrounds, being able to have areas in our city dedicated to being 'Chinatown' or 'Little Italy'. Did you know the Japanese students whom I took around Sydney reckon the sushi in Sydney tastes better than they are in Tokyo? It's because we have great seafood, and many of the great chefs have migrated to provide us their skills.
Otherwise we'd really be still eating chops one day and roast every second day.
So hopefully through this blog I can share with you the many different restaurants and ethnic cuisines. Even with a budget it doesn't hurt eating out once a month (as I had planned to do, not being able to afford to eat out everyday) and try some of the great flavours of the world.
(I think I am repeating 'flavour' a bit too much...)

Steamed oysters is one perfect fushion dish, using great Australian seafood with Asian sauces and steaming techniques (Image Source: KingStWharf.net.au)
