    Large and relaxed atmosphere whether it's quiet or a busy Thursday night.
    David O.

    You can't help but think there's not a whole lot to say about a food court; BUT this is Sydney's Westfield flagship centre where the options are more gourmet and there's lots to choose from. From hotdogs at Snag Stand to 5 star Chinese dumplings at Din Tai Fung. There's lots in between which you'll see for yourself when you come here. The ambient lighting and entire floor plan design adds to the whole experience. This is why "Food on 5" gets a 5 rating from me.

    Just stunning luxury and opulence. Some of my favourites include Streets of Saigon, Din tai Fung and for the sweet stuff: Via Del Corso. Sensational vegetable and taro dumplings at Din Tai Fung. The mint iced tea was stunning at the time. The ice creams at Via Del Corso - yummo! Just watch oout n a Saturday afternoon, it can really busy here. Waiting for Westfield Sydney to open (after Pitt Street Mall was a construction site for a bit of time) was oh so worth it :)

    It appears the days of the food court with the generic-looking cafés, serving unappealing "refreshments", are well and truly over! That's if the Food on Five food court is anything to go by! Whatever cuisine you're after, you probably won't be disappointed. I'm not going to go into details on each individual stand, but if you want anything from Rueben sandwiches to sushi, hot dogs to world famous dumplings, then get yourself up the numerous escalators! Obviously it gets pretty busy at lunch time, as you would expect, so you may want to know what you want before you head up there otherwise you may spend your whole lunch break deciding! I'm not sure every shopping centre will be taking this approach with its food courts, but it's certainly a step up from grabbing a sole-of-your-shoe burger from *insert name of inferior shopping centre food court here*

    How did I JUST discover the food court where all that is amazing joins culinary forces in one small area? This is the 5th floor food court in the Westfield shopping center up from Pitt Street. With Din Tai Fung's amazing dumpling bar, Snag Stand's gourmet sausages, Guzman y Gomez's tortilla wrapped spicy delights, and the sinful gelato at Via Del Curso, you really, really, really can't go wrong. I sought out this food land; I had heard tales of all the greatness it contained. And man did it deliver. The only downfall here is that you're going to have to deal with some severe indecision. Be easy on yourself. Start one stall at a time and work your way counter clockwise until you've seen everything. Don't make any rash decisions. Take your time. If all else fails, dedicate your day to eating in shifts. Just whatever you do, just don't miss the Din Tai Fung pork buns. Just don't do it.

    Pretty good, if expensive, food court. It gets crazy busy at lunch time, so get there early or don't bother.

    Awesome little dungeon style food court hidden from the general public only for those in the know…read more Downstairs in pittsway arcade is a bustling city of food stalls and nationalities that are fighting for a table and their lunch You'll go from Malaysia to China swing back to Thailand then to Korea and Vietnam dishes that tantalise your senses as you wind down the spiral staircase to heaven I've been here a few times so far and this time I went to Chinese stall for some wonton duck noodle soup mmm I nabbed a chair after paying 12 bux for it plus extra vegetables and a coke I listen intently for number 14 and run to the counter when it's yelled out Omg a HUGE serve comes my way while I delicately wind back to my table ok taste The broth is ok I've had better as with the wontons but the vegetables are delicious and the chewy like fresh egg noodles rock. I barely finish it I give it five because it's a dining experience you need to try to understand why it's a five star dungeon Happy eats btw the laksa looks and smells spicy and Devine!!!

    From the street, it doesn't look like much. A generic, nondescript arcade in Sydney's CBD. Even if…read moreyou are bored enough to walk through it, it doesn't look like too much. There's a Japanese grocery store (which is actually pretty good, one of only a couple of Japanese grocery places in the CBD), a generic sushi joint, a Japanese fragrance place and a mobile phone shop. There's also an entrance to the Town Hall Woolworths at the end of the arcade, and ultimately Town Hall station. However, towards the end of the arcade there's some stairs leading to a basement level. Again, until you look down them, it doesn't seem like there's much down there. If you decide to decend the stairs, you are greeted with a crowded food court packed with office workers, mainly Asian. The food court is not huge, there's only seven stalls, all serving a different Asian cuisine. There's Chinese, Malaysian, Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese, Nepalese and Burmese on offer, and it's all at bargain basement (excuse the pun) prices. The Malaysian stall has a lot of fans, but i'm sure the others are all good too. Nb: It's only open on weekdays (as it serves lunching office workers) for lunch.

    What's that you said? You've got money to burn? A credit card that doesn't look worn out enough?…read moreThen get thee down to Westfield Sydney, a couple of swipes of that card and flash a couple hundo's around; and you'll be as good as new! And chances are, you'll have some fancy new threads to show off. There's always so much happening at Westfield Sydney. Buskers in the mall, a sale at Zara, a new line of watches at Tag Heuer, or a new pair of Connies has come out at Hype. Either way, you'll never be short of something to buy, or something to look at. It doesn't matter which end or side of town you work in, you're never far away from Westfield Sydney; even if it's just to join the stampeding herds in the food court under Myer. Being a shopaholic, I could burn up a fortnights pay here in one go; and just keep rambling around until my bank card ran away screaming, or the bank just gave me the big thumbs down. Some may find the way the interior's decorated a tad too shiny, but I think that adds to the opulent atmosphere that you should expect from a shopping centre towards the upper-end of the spectrum. Be warned that you may spend sometime finding what you're after; but once you have, all will be right with the world... that's while your left trying to work out which arm to carry that extra bag on.

It was located near the north end of Hyde Park at the NW intersection of Market St and Castlereagh St. It was easy to spot from far away with the Sydney Tower Eye. The mall was huge where you can easily get lost inside. Thankfully, they had good signage at the escalators. Just from a little bit of window-shopping, there were plenty of high-end stores. You can go up the Sydney Tower Eye from the 5th floor. There were restaurants on several floors. I ate at Yayoi up on the 6th floor.

    The Queen Victoria Building (QVB) was built in 1898 and designed by 28-year old architect, George…read moreMcRae, replacing the original Sydney markets on the site. Built as a monument to the long reigning monarch, construction took place during a severe recession. How? The elaborate Romanesque architecture was specially planned for the grand building so the Government could employ many out-of-work craftsmen - stonemasons, plasterers, and stained window artists - in a worthwhile project. The Stained Glass The visual message of Sydney's coat of arms on the cartwheel stained glass window, is that the beehive depicts business, the sailing ship - trade, and the dolphins - the harbor. Panel 1 (on the left-hand side) represents the Council of the City of Sydney and symbols of architecture, while the letters I.G.B., on panel 3 (on the right), represent Ipoh Gardens Berhad, the Malaysian company who restored the QVB in 2009. The symbols are of property developers - the builders. The bottom central panel represents the heraldic symbol of a finished building, and the joining of two hands denotes the fusing of two cultures. The Queen's Secret Letter There is a letter from Queen Elizabeth II to the Citizens of Sydney, to be opened and read by the Lord Mayor of Sydney in the year 2085. The Queen Victoria Statue Outside the QVB, on Town Hall Place, facing The Town Hall are the Royal Wishing Well and Queen Victoria's statue. My experience: This is the second time I have visited this building and on the second time, I found even more hidden historical things of note. It's a remarkable way to feel like you've stepped back in time, whether that's through shopping or through grabbing a coffee or tea and sitting in the atrium, taking it all in. TIP: Go to Haight's for some chocolate!
