Best of Sussex Centre Food Court ~ Chinatown

A list of our faves after trying every stall in the Sussex Centre Food Court.

[LAST UPDATED MAY 2014]

Happy Chef ~ Chinese - Sussex Centre Food Court - Chinatown

Happy Chef's laksa gets mentioned all the time in those lazy Sydney Morning Herald 'best of' list articles. And Luke Mangan gives it the thumbs up (it says so on the signage), so it's got to be good, right?

[UPDATED MARCH 2015]

Naruto ~ Korean\Japanese - Market City Food Court - Chinatown [CLOSED]

More not-really-Japanese at Naruto in the Market City Food Court.

[CLOSED - NOVEMBER-ISH 2013]

Tokyo Mart ~ Northbridge Plaza ~ Japanese Supermarket

Tokyo Mart in Northbridge is a Japan lover's paradise. From shiso to shochu, it's all there.

Tokyo Day 8 ~ Are We Not Ramen?

We sniff out the food under and around Tokyo Station, try some Japanese Italian, get jiggy at a Japanese synthpunk gig, and wash it all down with a killer ramen. And we discuss our favourite aspect of traditional Japanese culture: the Softbank dog.

Jimmy's Recipe World Square ~ Malaysian - Haymarket\City [CLOSED]

Jimmy's Recipe is a hole-in-the-wall joint at the arse end of World Square that does good, cheap Malaysian street food for the city office crowd.
[CLOSED MID 2013]

Oden House ~ Taiwanese - Chinatown

Taiwanese floaty things at Oden House in Chinatown.


[MOVED TO SUSSEX CENTRE FOOD COURT - SEE HERE]

Tokyo Day 7 ~ Aoki Aoki Aoki!

Tokyo backstreets, bento and baseball food.

Kitchen OEC ~ Japanese - Sussex Centre Food Court, Chinatown [CLOSED]

Kitchen OEC is a little ripper of a Japanese joint in the Sussex Centre Food Court, specialising in  korokke (Japanese potato croquettes) and tonkatsu (like a Japanese schnitzel).

[CLOSED JULY 2013]

North and South ~ Chinese - Sussex Centre Food Court - [CLOSED]

North and South tries to cover some east and west too, so we find some uncharted territory in between.

[CLOSED MARCH 2014]

Chennai ~ Malaysian - King Street Newtown [CLOSED]

We've always reckoned that opening a Malaysian street food joint in King Street Newtown would be a dang smart move. Finally somebody's done it, yay! [CLOSED JULY 2012 - SHAME, THIS PLACE ALMOST WORKED BUT NOT QUITE...]

Tokyo Day 6 ~ Karma Cola at Kamakura

If there was a technical term for the study of noodle soup  it may be the bad Greek translation minestraology. We decide to take a degree in the fine arts of soba, udon and other slippery numbers to find out more.
