City RestaurantsOnce upon a time, exotic eating in Sydney or its suburbs was defined by a local Chinese restaurant or Greek cafe - if you were lucky enough to have one or both of them. How things have changed!Today, it's not a case of Chinese cuisine - but which Chinese? Cantonese? Szechuan? Hakka? Or choosing from myriad other Asian eateries - Malaysian, Thai, Vietnamese... And the Greeks have been joined by everyone from around the Mediterranean - Italian, Lebanese, Spanish, Turkish - even Moroccan. Italian cucina has devloped great popularity - and no longer just in Leichhardt and the inner suburbs. It's now so widespread, you can enjoy the tastes of Italy all around the City and suburbs - in simple trattoria fashion and in the most elegant ristorante style and surroundings. That sums up an important part of the Sydney experience - adventuring through the multicultural mix of cuisines on offer from the fine restaurants, brash bistros and colourful cafes that are now within reach of everyone throughout the city and its suburbs. CinemasThe Harbour City is also truly the happening city, when it comes to entertainment.Especially when the sun goes down. That's when Sydney shows all its style as all the theatres, cinemas, ballet and opera companies, and orchestras get ready for showtime. And for Sydney visitors and Sydneysiders alike, the after dark life also offers a host of less highbrow, but more widely popular sights and sounds. From great live music in the local hotels, through to the yuppie nightclubs where Dance music rules, to swish piano bars and cocktail lounges - right on up to international shows at the Entertainment Centre and Star CityŠ It's all there to suit the widest range of tastes. Nightlife (Bars, Clubs.......)When the sun goes down, Sydney comes alive. There are heaps of pubs, clubs, theatres and even a casino at Darling Harbour to keep you busy at night! |
