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.

WOWCOW

@ 280 King Street




OK it's been two years since my last post. There's a reason for this. I've been away, in rainy England, enjoying myself and having a ball. But I'm back now. And, as to be expected, there have been changes to my beloved King Street. 38 changes to be exact. So expect me to be blasting up posts and eating up the street like no other.

The first shop I visited was WOWCOW. It was an easy eat. Frozen yoghurt. I grabbed a medium pot, chocolate and vanilla. Simple yet delicious. Extremely creamy and very sweet. I could tell from the first bite though that it wasn't real yogurt. It was sugar filled happiness. I relished it and the service was nice as well. There are only two things I'm disappointed over 1) the fact that it tasted less like yogurt and more like icecream and 2) the fact that WOWCOW took over the African food place.

Oh well, at least they still kept the map of Africa on the side of the shop.
