[Sydney Trip] Day 10: Sydney City Tour

First stop of the day was Bondi beach. The famous beach was empty as it was a windy, cold morning.

Along the way we passed by Paddington market. And I couldn't help but to stop and take a look :) Among the 5 markets in Sydney that I've been to, I'd say that Paddington had the most unique items but The Rocks had the best view.

Before noon we rushed to Palace Chinese Restaurant at Piccadilly Tower for dimsum lunch, before the place became too crowded. The dimsum was served the old style, where the waitresses walked around the restaurant wheeling the carts stacked with yummy dishes to offer to all patrons.

After lunch we left the car in Piccadilly Tower and took the public bus to The Rocks. Then we walked along Circular Quay and Opera Quay towards Opera House. The whole place was so lively, buzzing with people.

We had a quick tour in Manly too.

In the spirit of a cloudy day, we had hotpot dinner at home. Beef meatballs, fishballs, fishcake, tofu, mushrooms, vegetables, and steamed rice plus sukiyaki dipping sauce :)
