Sydney’s Top 5 Insta Worthy food & drink

Have you ever been sat at your favourite restaurant, waiting for your food to arrive and your nostrils flare as you sense your dish coming your way? The smell alone is enough to make you excited. But as your meal is placed in front of you, your hand reaches for your phone as your eyes gaze upon your food. You can’t help yourself, it’s too beautiful not to share with the internet. Just one picture. But that one picture turns into 8 until you’ve perfected the image for your gram.

We’re all a little guilty of it. We live in a world full of social media and sometimes, food is too pretty to just eat, we need to snap a photo so everyone can be envious of the beauty upon our plate. Let’s start with dessert, because who doesn’t love dessert first?

Celsius Dessert Bar have created possibly one of the most instagrammable dish ever. It’s called dragon breath and you can’t just take a picture of it, you need to take a video.

Stretch Italian have got the goods when it comes to an epic insta photo AND video op.

Prepared in a GIANT 40kg Parmigiano Reggiano cheese wheel imported from Italy, the theatrics alone will make you drool. Authentic and rustic at it’s finest, grab your friends and your phone and get amongst it.

I’m sure you’ve heard about Lady Gaga’s infamous meat dress worn at the MTV Video Music awards in 2010. Memory Tongue have taken it quite literal and put their own spin on it by creating a barbie meat extravaganza. With sliced meat wrapped delicately around a barbie doll, it’s the perfect picture for your friends to double tap.

You can’t go past any of the General Chao meals without taking a photo. All of their food is meticulously placed upon their plates. A picture of the Peking style lamb shank *drool* marinated with Illawarra plum and served with spiced orange sauce, sweet potato puree and Asian slaw will make anyone jealous. This doesn’t only taste and smell amazeballs, it’s aesthetically pleasing to the eye. It’s not just food that needs to be snapped, grab yourself an insatiable cocktail to post and gloat. General Chao’s answer to Friday happy hour is Tiger Time, and between 4:30pm and 6:30pm  you can drink espresso martini’s on a budget for $12, as well as Moscow Mules and house beverages! Get a little creative with your friends and master the drink clink boomerang.

Make sure when you snap a pic for the gram, your hashtag game is strong. Let them know your love for their perfectly placed food. Get snapping and tagging!
