On a rainy day in Redfern what better place to be than the Patagonian Toothfish restaurant. The name is enough to entice you.

We were there for lunch on a quiet Saturday, but at night the best table is in front of the fire – perfect for a cold winter night.

On warmer days or nights there is outdoor seating under cover where you can watch the passers by.

Next door is the Woolpack Hotel which we went to after lunch for a cleansing glass of wine (or two).

The restaurant is small and intimate. Hong Kong born, Mauritian raised owner Steven specialises in light curries and tapas which have been influenced by French Mauritian flavours.

I moved to Redfern a year ago and found it to be so different to my initial impression. Ten years ago, I would not have ventured into certain areas and would not have felt safe walking the streets at night – but I do now.

What we have here is a fabulous change occurring, not gentrification but the buzzy feeling of an exciting, energy filled hub of the city.

The shutters are coming off the shops (goodbye Beirut) and the sun can shine in.

Great time to be here – lots of things to share with you
