Acres Club, Greenacre

Acres Club is located in Greenacre and has been doing Sunday Sessions in March in partnership with Stone and Wood (Mr Weekend Food Escapes loves their beer). There's been a whole lot of action for the kiddies with a jumping castle, playground, face painting and for the adults, an adults only area with games and live music for good vibes. Keep an eye out on their website for upcoming events. I haven't had a drink in about a year so this was where I was going to be reunited with alcohol!

Malaysian Heritage Cuisine Event hosted by Jackie M

I recently attended an event to celebrate Malaysian Heritage Cuisine. The very talented and popular Jackie M hosted the event in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industries of Malaysia (MAFI), in partnership with the Masters of Malaysian Cuisine (MOMC). Jackie M is a renowned chef and founder of Masters of Malaysian Cuisine.

This was my first foodie event since having my baby boy Benji which I have left at home with Mr Weekend Food Escapes. I missed him so much while I was at the event but it was good to socialise and be immersed back into the world of food.

Motto Motto, Macquarie Park

I’ve been to Motto Motto in Macquarie centre a few times but have yet to blog about my experience! Motto Motto is a chain restaurant that is fusion Japanese. Mr Weekend Food Escapes is especially fond of their Hokkaido flavoured soft serve (when the flavour is available).

Japan City, Top Ryde

After spending a lot of time indoors during covid while pregnant and navigating the first few months of mothering a newborn. I decided to venture out for the first time for a meal out at Japan City at Top Ryde. 

Japan City is hidden above Coles and is part shop and part restaurant. It seems relatively busy when I walk past. There’s limited Japanese restaurants at Top Ryde. There’s a few small sushi venues in the food court and a sushi train outside which I wasn’t a fan of so I am hoping this will be a good experience. There can be a line outside in peak lunch times on the weekend.
