Cheap Places to Eat in City of Parramatta Council

"Spread across two levels, you will find a funky interior, followed by over 80 dishes to choose from. There are areas where you can enjoy an intimate dinner, with dim lighting, jazz music, and your won little nook to settle into. As for the rest of the restaurant, it’s fairly open, and meals here are a big affair."

"At Potts Point's upmarket modern Japanese diner, chef Nic Wong packs stacks of creative talent and a deft culinary metier that results in a menu that is sharp, focused and downright delicious. A crab fried rice is smoky – that's the bonito – and spicy care of XO sauce, and textured by plenty of fish roe that pop like exploding ninjas. Eggplant miso sticks are kind of like sophisticated Dagwood Dogs – creamy, salty, soft-centred with an Asian twist."

"You’ll find modern Japanese food at its finest here amidst minimal décor and clean, straight lines. The food follows the izakaya. This is a style which is probably most akin to an American saloon or an Irish pub."

"Cho Cho San’s modern Japanese cuisine has made quite a mark in Sydney’s foodie scene. Don’t expect a large sushi roll menu, but instead indulge in the izakaya, hibachi, and plates like the pork udon noodles."

"Golden Century has been serving Sydneysiders with classic Cantonese fare for more than three decades. Many of its popular orders are now legendary, the pippies with XO sauce most of all. Arrive at midnight or a few hours later on a Sunday and you might see some of Sydney’s best chefs bulldozing their way through out-of-the-tank seafood, mud crab with ginger and shallot, and maybe a bizarre mix of cheap imported beer and luxury wines."

"It would be remiss not to include this legendary seafood restaurant in our top 10 – the midday to late-night venue (it’s open till 4am!) is well known for hosting hungry chefs post-service and celebrities like Lady Gaga and Rihanna, post-stadium concerts. Top dishes: pippies with XO sauce, steamed live prawns and steamed parrot fish with ginger and shallots. 393-399 Sussex St, Sydney, goldencentury.com.au"

"Located in Chinatown, this sprawling Cantonese restaurant is something of an institution. Thanks to its live seafood menu and late-night hours, it’s where the best chefs go to eat after they’ve finished their shifts. The menu is massive but you can’t go wrong with the steamed lobster or pippies in XO sauce and the salt and pepper mud crab"

"Fishbowl will be available for takeaway on their website and most delivery platforms throughout the lockdown. Grab a quick and healthy salad or bowl while you’re stuck WFH."

"Nestled right in the thick of Haymarket’s 1909 dining precinct, The Dolar Shop specialises in hotpot and Chinese-Macanese cuisine. Hotpot is one of the most beloved ways of dining in Chinese culture, which means you have to give it a go. Expect prime meats paired with unique blends of sauces- delicious!"

Need your fix of Italian freshness in a hurry?"

"Far less popular than the touristy Bondi to Coogee hike, the Spit to Manly Walk is a quieter alternative with more natural busy and varied views. A stunning day hike along the North Sydney harbor coastline that weaves its way through a mix of lush bushland and scenic harbourside trails with secluded beaches, indigenous rock carvings, and panoramic lookouts along the way. You can hike the 10km (6.2 miles) trail in 3.5 hours in a hurry, but I recommend you take your time and enjoy the sights and sounds."

"If you fancy stretching your legs, the walk from Manly to Spit Bridge is a pleasant 2-3 hour coastal walk with amazing views over the ocean. Catch the ferry to Manly harbour and head round the coast – make sure not to miss the ancient aboriginal carvings along the way. When it comes to free things to do in Sydney, this is one of the most popular for good reason."
