Clipper Cafe, Glebe

During my first couple of years at Sydney Uni, a 2 hour break between classes meant a visit  to King St in Newtown for $6 Thai. It was cheap and it was filling, but I found myself going there less and less especially in my third and fourth years at uni. Perhaps my palate became more discerning, or perhaps I just got sick of eating the same pad thai and pad see ew day in and day out, but I ventured away from the Thai places in Newtown and into the cafes on Glebe Point Road.

I stumbled into Clipper Cafe one day with its cool bicycle wall hangings and relaxed vibe. It was no less busy than my usual Thai haunts in Newtown but once seated I felt like I could sit there all day sipping coffee and tapping away on my laptop (as some people were doing).

Berry Smoothie - $5.00

Flying Fajita Sistas, Glebe, for Taco Tuesdays

$3 tacos and $3 tequila shots - who could say no? Definitely not these eight hungry food bloggers who were intent on taking full advantage of Flying Fajita Sista's taco platters. These platters allowed everyone to have one taco of each flavour with complimentary sides at the princely sum of $12pp.

Strawberry and White Wine Sangria (1 litre) - $19.50

We start off with some strawberry and white wine sangria which has brandy soaked strawberries, white wine, pineapple juice and ginger ale. This is sweet and refreshing compared to the heavier red wine sangrias and I particularly like the boozy strawberry chunks in the drink.

Trio of pepian, queso fundido and frijoles - $14.90
