Spring has sprung in Sydney — and we’re back on the dining tour trail! After a winter hiatus, we’re refreshed, hungry and ready to welcome our summer guests. New players for this season include: Paripe, the elegant Spanish dining room on Crown Street and Pasta Emilia, a beautifully dressed warehouse space hidden away on Riley Street, formerly one of Sydney’s most notorious precincts! We are looking forward to introducing our guests to both of these new venues for Summer 2026 - 2027.
What a summer it’s been! Sydney has been sizzling—hot days, vibrant nights, and streets alive with energy. We’ve loved sharing it all with our amazing guests, exploring the city’s food + beverage culture in some of the best dining rooms. We’re excited to welcome some new players to our dining tours: Ciao Fabbrica on Victoria Street, Darlinghurst, serving up rustic Italian delights; El Primo Sanchez on Crown Street, Surry Hills, bringing bold and festive Latin flavours to the table.
Creating this album of 2025 highlights reminded us of just how much has happened this year in the life of The Sydney Connection. There were definitely some strong themes: fabulous food, beautiful flowers, inspiring art, great people and wonderful Sydney!
