Japanese food North of Sydney suburb








We went on to this very nice authentic Japanese food for dinner. Not much ambient but feels homely. Not too expensive consider the food is prepared by a chef from Japan. Not those commercial Japan mee u eat. I was told the shop puts up a challenge for whoever able to eat 10 bowls of mee (which is huge), he can walk away FOC. I saw the Wall of fame written in papers in black Japanese words. In it were the name, the date and the number of bowls eaten. Well, I think its kinda of interesting. Everything in the shop was written in papers paste on the wall, including the menu. Will try to get the address and post it on this entry. Keep looking out for it!

@ Minus 5º Ice Lounge

There are shops, pubs, sports bar and fine dining across the opera house arena. Looks kinda of like our vivo city. Over looking lake view with dining experience. And we came across this ice lounge that is spectacular. Its call Minus 5 deg. All their cups and lounge tables are made of ice. Which means that place is kept at below 0 deg Celsius. Interesting place . Can read all about that at this site

Opera house and habour Bridge






And so after the coffee, we went to the bridge and opera house to take some pictures. There is a quay named circular quay. Its seems like another form of transport to the Aussie there. There are like monthly rates to travel via tram, bus, and ferry.

Well, to get across to the bridge from the northern suburb into Sydney, there is like a toll fee of 3 bucks all day round.

Home Backpacker!

Took a train to Sydney on sat morning . The tickets cost us $17.40Aus. Finally am back. Enjoy everything Sydney have to offer except the room we stay in! Let me just say this! Home Backpacker is rubbish! The carpet is dirty. Bed is stained. Room smells bad. Pillow turns yellow. The best part, someone has their bags in the locker in our room. That means that he still has the key to our room! The place is crap!!! It looks like we cant stay even a minute there. Well we did! I should say some of us did. half of them couldn't take the crap anymore, jst proceed back to hotel in Jesmond. But you cant expect anything good out of a 20bucks/day stay.
