Great Pho and everything else. If you love Vietnamese food you won't be disappointed. They sell beer but bring your own wine. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

Parks & Nature

This is the best spot in Sydney to take an iconic tourist shot. A short 10 minute walk down South King Street (look for the chimney stacks). Once you arrive, go up onto the hill and you can see the whole of Sydney City behind you, look the other way and see jumbos landing at Kingsford Smith airport.
