Catch a ferry from Double Bay to the City to experience the harbour at its best. You can walk to Double Bay Wharf from The Studio, it's all down hill. Ride the ferry to the City and pass some of Sydney's most beautiful homes. If you really want to experience the harbour, transfer to the Manly ferry and spend the afternoon at Manly Beach.

An absolute favourite restaurant of ours in Darlinghurst. It's a 10 minute Uber ride but worth the effort. No sign on the door and a local favourite. Sarah and Andy are the owners and will make you feel right at home.

It's a must see on a trip to Sydney. Leave your shoes at home, anything goes. Once you have seen the beach the real action is in the side streets of Hall St, where you will find everything from hole in the wall cafes and wine bars to great new fashion.

If you want to experience meat as "art" a visit to Victor Churchills Gutcher is a must. Some of the most premium cuts and (prices) of meat you will experience. The store is an absolute treat, a feast for the senses. You can bring back to cook on the barbie with a salad from Maloney's.
