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.

Janet's Pies

@ 283 King Street, Newtown

For as long as I can remember, this shop has always been about pies. It began as Shakespeares Pies (truly awesome), then changed to Jester's Pies, and now, it's all on Janet. My fondest memories will always lie with Shakespeare's Pies though in all honestly the taste compared with Janet's is much the same. Most of the pies are traditional, though there are sometimes more interesting ones. They also sell other delights like muffins and quiches. It's open to late and is a often a choice place for those on the late night prowl.
