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.

Daytao Thai

@ 543 King Street, Newtown

With it's colourful sign and corner positioning, it's not hard to notice Daytao Thai. It has a takeaway section on the right and a dining section on the left with a gorgeous courtyard down back. The food isn't half bad either. The portions are extremely substantial and for the price (my vegetarian curry was $8) was pretty decent. On the upside, they also have a selection of Thai deserts including mango and sticky rice - which I always find a treat to find in Thai restaurants. Pictured below is the custard sticky rice, very heavy with just enough sweetness to do the trick.
