Ask a Local: The Perfect Weekend in Sydney, According to Artist Gabrielle Penfold | Condé Nast Traveler
"When in the city centre, Gabrielle likes taking waterside walks in Potts Point and heading down to the harbor in upmarket Elizabeth Bay to enjoy the sunset. The food scene here covers the spectrum, from high-end to cheap. 'If I want to go for a posh dinner to celebrate a friend’s birthday, I go to Fratelli Paradiso, an Italian place run by two brothers, Gio and Rico. Their daily pasta specials are delicious, especially the scampi pasta. My favorite dessert is the Campari and blood orange sorbet. I’ve interrogated them on how to make it, but they won’t tell me!' For after-dinner drinks, Gabrielle heads to nearby Vermuteria, a new aperitif wine bar and deli that does a mean vermouth accompanied by a ‘gilda’ cocktail-stick skewer of white anchovy, olives and pickles."
