Great place for a run if you want something a little different from the beaches. It's a former wetland and while you have to go through a residential to access it - it's nice to see the birdlife.

This is where I go to swim. In the Middle of the Eastern Suburbs Coastal Walk it is a small bay that is safe to swim - not rough, and great amenities. No sharks here but there is great snorkelling!

Great US Bar with US snacks. The owners worked in NY and have created a fun neighbourhood bar based on their US working experience. It's a lot of fun. Also go to Hartzyard for the best fried chicken in town.

Check out the new Rosebery food hub scene. Rosebery and Alexandria and Surry Hills will take you days to explore but they all have great foodie scenes. Try The Grounds/Potting Shed in Alexandria, my favourite place is the hub in Dunning Avenue Rosebery, as you'll find Three Blue Ducks - stunning paddock to plate restaurant, the Archie Rose Distillery (take a tour and relax with a beer), Messina Gelato (the HQ of Messina, where they actually create all the flavours - this buzzes until midnight in summer believe it or not!0 and breakfast/brunch and coffee at Bourke Street Bakery.

If you walk along Kingsford from the University to the Kingsford Roundabout you will find some of the best value Asian restaurants in the East. They cater for the University crowd and if it's full, then you know the students like it. If it's empty...perhaps it might be a bit pricey or not so good? Kensington, the other side of the University hosts Chairman Mao which is very spicy and rare Hunnanese food. It's a bit heavy for me but I'm told it is a rare and authentic find.
