Ciao everyone. How was the weekend? Mine was jam packed with birthday celebrations for my best friend Isi. They started off with Friday night drinks at the Slip Inn which was packed as the El Loco pop-up has just started for the month of March. Saturday was spent at Future music festival which was fun, but not the [...]

Ciao Ciao Amici! Spero che stiate tutti bene. The beautiful Positano was our last Italian destination on our Euro trip. Situated on the Amalfi Coast, its cliff side enclave leads down to the pristine waters below. We spent 3 days here and were lucky enough to have an apartment right on the cliff, with the [...]

I am currently sitting on a flight from New York to Las Vegas and thought it was the perfect opportunity to do a blog post! I am loving the fact that Delta airlines offer wifi on their flights…it definitely makes the 5.5 hour haul slightly more bearable. Our next Italian destination after Napoli brought us [...]

Stop two of our Italy adventure brought us to Napoli, creators of my favourite food…Pizza. We only spent two days here so we tried to fit in as many places that we could. Napoli as a city is pretty crazy, the drivers on the road are ruthless, trying to cross the street felt like a life threatening decision, [...]

Ciao amici…So exactly a month later I have found the time and wifi to post again. I’m currently in Prague sitting in our hotel as it is cold & rainy outside, even Sydney has better weather then here atm. Seems like a lifetime ago that we were actually in Roma, which so far has been [...]

Just another breakfast blog to add to the list this time we headed down to La Repubblica at beautiful Balmoral Beach. I grew up at this beach, visiting every weekend when the Summer’s were actually good. I have never been down to Balmoral for breakfast, but after seeing La Repubblica one afternoon I thought it [...]

This time last year I had just started My Kiki Cake and my very first post was Neil Perry’s restaurant Spice Temple. The dinner was with the BF to celebrate our two year anniversary. Here we are a year later, celebrating three years together, and one year with my blog.  Our restaurant of choice this year was [...]

To celebrate Poppy’s 22nd Birthday, we decided to throw her a casual lunch filled with yummy food on a lazy Saturday afternoon. My group of friends are great in the sense that we all have large appetites and love to eat good food. We always go overboard and ended up having a mini feast. Each [...]

You may have noticed that my twitter tweets from the past week have been focused on showcasing the food from an event called ATE. I currently work for Tourism Australia as an assistant in the trade events team. From the 2nd – 8th of April we were all working at the event, which focuses on [...]

To celebrate her 70th birthday Maria Venuti launched her book ‘A whole lot of front’ a biography of her 50 year career working in the entertainment industry in Australia. For those of you that know of Venuti, you can see how the title of the book matches her personality and appearance perfectly. The launch was [...]

I have wanted to dine at Pizza e Birra ever since my Italian friend referred to it as one of the best places for pizza in Sydney. I don’t think I have made it clear in any of my other blogs but pizza is definitely one of my food favourites, and if i could have [...]

Having visited Fratelli Paradiso on a few occasions in the past, I though it was time for a much needed re-visit. The venue is made up of a restaurant with an adjoining bakery. We decided to have something light – opted for the bakery side – and grabbed a seat outside and ordered our mid-morning [...]
