Stalking Fail

Australian Food Burgers Circular Quay Darling Harbour Food Trip Park Hyatt Sydney Sydney Harbour Bridge Sydney Opera House The Rocks The Rocks Market Traveling

We were back in the city once more, this time to stalk Bruno Mars. LOL.


But first, we walked near the Sydney Harbour Bridge.


I just had to touch the darn bridge that is soooo beautiful that it looks photoshopped from afar. Hahaha.


See the teeny tiny people walking at the bridge? They're doing the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb. I wanted to do it but then you have to book in advanced and I'm scared of heights soooo...


We went at the back of Park Hyatt Sydney afterwards where a friend of a friend of my aunt told her that Bruno Mars will be staying here for the Sydney leg of his Moonshine Jungle Tour. We weren't able to confirm if he was indeed staying there so we left after 30 mins. Sayang effort! Haha.

 
Walking distance from Circular Quay is The Rocks Market.


The Rocks Market offer Australian made products.


Tita Lulu and I both wanted those awesome plates on display but they were too expensive for almost AUD50 or even over!

 
The Rocks Market also have a offer a food market where we ordered angus and wagyu burger for our late lunch. They were priced at AUD10 each which was sooo good and cheap in terms of Australian standards. Hehe.

We had to go home after our short trip to the city because we needed to pick-up my cousin Jay. Yes, Jay who's based in Japan is on leave and will be joining us for the rest of my Sydney vacay. Class talaga ni cousin, ang dami kasing miles! Hahaha. Jay, if you're reading this... sponsor ka naman ng isang roundtrip ticket diyan! Hihihi.

Lazy afternoons in Sydney CBD.

Australia Chinatown Food Trip Japanese Food Opal Card Paddy's Markets Sydney Sydney Central Station Sydney Harbour Bridge Traveling Umi Kaiten Zushi

Sydney Central Station

My aunt lives in Penrith City which is an hour away from Sydney CBD. So upon arrival, she gave me my Opal card, the newest electronic mode of payment for transport in New South Wales. You may use the Opal card in trains, light rails, buses and ferries too!

I love the seating arrangement of their trains. It makes traveling much comfortable than the usual face to face seating position. We were always seated in the quiet area which is the first and last carriage of the train.

After our Circular Quay and Bondi walkathon, time for lunch! My aunt brought me to her favorite Japanese restaurant in the city. You might ask, "Why Japanese?!". Well, we both just share the love for Japanese food. Believe it or not, I still have a serious hungover from my Tokyo trip last Febraury. Haha.

Umi Kaiten Zushi is located at 1/477 Pitt Street, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia (Chinatown). They're open from 11:30AM-10:00PM.

 
 
It's a bit expensive here, cheapest order of sushi is around AUD2.50 or roughly ₱100.00 per plate. The ones I ordered above costs around AUD8.00-10.00. Ang mahal! But masarap! ;)

Here's the Korean sushi chef Andrew preparing my order of uni sashimi. He reminds me of local basketball superstar Jeron Teng. Cute di ba? Hihi.

After our heavy lunch, we walked around the area of China town.

We also dropped by Paddy's Markets which is the ultimate shopping area of souvenir items for tourists.


Say hi to my Aunt Lourdes! :) You may call her Tita Lulu for short. Hehe.
