CULINARY IN SYDNEY
There are not much variations of national dishes in Sydney, unlike in Indonesia. However, that did not stop them from creating new combinations of foods to claim it as their own.
Dishes claimed to be the national dish of Sydney
MEAT PIE
You can put any type of meat into a meat pie. It is a very delicious snack you can eat if you’re in a rush. If baked right, the crust is able to compliment the inside just right.
VEGEMITE ON TOAST
Vegamite has gotten a name for itself for being very salty, but this is because you’re only supposed to apply a little amount of it on toast, not a whole spoon full.
LAMINGTONS
Lamingtons are tiny cakes covered in shreded coconut and a very sweet inside. It is a nice dessert after eating the others such as meat pie and vegemite on toast.
Other unique dishes in Sydney
KANGAROO MEAT
Kangaroo meat is one of the most hardest meat to chew, as Kangaroos are known to be very strong and built, so their meat won’t be as soft as a standard beef, although it may taste like it.
CROCODILE MEAT
Crocodile on a skewer tastes like any other seafood dish you’d try. It may have a weird texture, but it is soft to chew like fish, unlike the kangaroo meat from before.
EMU MEAT
All these interesting meats were actually found in the same booth in the Rocks Market. Emu basically taste similarly like chicken, but it is still very distinct from usual chicken.
