Paris and New York have a reputation for being a food lovers dream; now you can add Sydney to that list, and for a fraction of the price. Drawing inspiration from the city's large immigrant population, many of Sydney's best restaurants fuse the exotic culinary techniques of Vietnam and Thailand with more traditional Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. It's called "Modern Australian," or "Mod Oz," and topped off with Australia's indigenous flavors, spices, cheeses and world-famous wines. We are totally hungry for more.
