Behind the Scenes

Behind the Scenes

Last week we shot the first part of our new promo video with the fabulous guys from JJ Splice Digital at Surry Hills and Darlinghurst venues: Brix Distillers, Loluk Bistro and Tilly May’s. Two of our cast members are also fantastic photographers so we were very lucky to get some great behind the scene shots whilst on the shoot. We are shooting the second part this week so should have a finished product to show off very soon.

New Player | Bon Vin

New Player | Bon Vin

Meet the newest addition to our Darlinghurst Dining Walk.
We first discovered Bon Vin in a hidden laneway of East Sydney totally by accident, whilst out on the town in Darlo with friends one winters night. On a brisk Sydney evening the idea of descending into a subterranean cellar was very appealing, when the lovely waiter standing outside, invited us inside.

Crafty Dining: Grand Days x Dulcie's

Crafty Dining: Grand Days x Dulcie's

Our third stop for Crafty Dining in East Sydney was the treasure that is Grand Days for a tipple from Dulcie's Kings Cross. Our guests bought vintage accessories, clothes, records and books in between chatting over the charcuterie board. Shopping with cocktails is the way more fun!

Crafty Dining: Stylecraft x Toki

Crafty Dining: Stylecraft x Toki

Our second stop for Crafty Dining in East Sydney was the very contemporary Stylecraft, stockists of 70% Australian designed & made furniture and homeware. We indulged in delicious mushroom arancini from Toki Italian Inspired located just around the corner on Crown Street.

Featuring a couple of exhibitions including entries in the Profile 2019: Contemporary Jewellery and Object Award.

Crafty Dining: Skarfe x Kakawa

Crafty Dining: Skarfe x Kakawa

Our final stop was at Skarfe in the back streets of Potts Point. Brad dressed our ladies in silk & cotton and the room soon turned into a whirling bazaar of colour and sound as everyone tried out the merchandise. There was more excitement as the Kakawa Chocolates Sydney were opened and consumed on the spot.

Brown Paper Wine

Brown Paper Wine

Brown Paper Wine is the creation of Richard Powell, his mates call him all sorts of names: Richie, Dick, and many more colourful monikers. We first met when he supplied wines for a Surry Hills Creative Precinct function we attended a year ago. His passion and joy in introducing people to good wine was evident from the moment he poured us a glass.

Skarfe x Kakawa

Skarfe x Kakawa

We have always wanted to do an event with Skarfe since we stumbled across the tiny, colourful store in it’s original location on Roslyn Terrace. Owner Brad McGlashan - a fellow New Zealander - kicked off his business in the same year as The Sydney Connection began so we always had plenty to talk about on our instore visits.
