There’s something magical about Sydney in the colder months. There’s no shortage of cute and cosy bars to seek refuge from the chill and fun events to get you off the couch. Plus, we’ve been having some unseasonably warm days – so in off-peak season, there are fewer tourists to contend with on the iconic coastal walk!
Go on a Nutella road trip
Let’s be honest, we ALL love Nutella. But do we love it enough to chase a food truck serving up Nutella treats around the city? Only time will tell. On Friday May 11 and Saturday May 12, a food truck will make a 9 stop trip around Sydney, delivering tasty dishes like Nutella-drizzled pancakes, crumpets, bagels, waffles and even acai bowls. Oh and the best part is, they’re all free!
