Walking down King Street in Newtown, one of Sydney's oldest suburbs, one's senses can become completely overwhelmed. Despite its colourful boutiques and a seemingly endless array of second-hand book stores, it's the tastebuds that really get the work-out with the strip's vast line of culinary delights. I've walked King Street many times and have counted over 140 pubs, restuarants and cafes along it.

These never stay static either. Constantly changing, upgrading, renaming and expanding one can always expect a new gastronomic adventure to greet them when visiting King Street.

Well, I'm determined to end that and achieve the near impossible: to feast from every restaurant/cafe/bar on King Street and live to tell the tale.

Chedi Thai

@ 74-78 King Street, Newtown

With its wide frontage and wicker seats, this is a gorgeous looking restaurant. As I recall, a while ago there was an on-the-floor seating option. Not anymore I'm afraid.

Upon enterting Chedi, the venue is dimly lit and extremely spacious. We were seated in one of the wicker seats with a table that was a little too high for someone of my stature. No worry, the service was prompt and the food delivered in a timely manner. As to the actual food, I've no recollection of it. With so many Thai restaurants on the street, it's hard to distinguish one from another, but aside from its exterior, Chedi wasn't too memorable. Just like its prices, I'd say it was fair.
