Oh my God, is anyone else as obsessed with the vanilla milkshakes at Buzz Bistro Emporium) as I am? They taste out of this world and they’re not too big, so you won’t feel gluggy and horrible afterwards.

Buzz Bistro has become a firm favourite among Valley locals who can’t get enough of its chic Parisian-style sidewalk dining. The bustling bistro also transforms into an elegant dining room from Wednesday to Saturday evenings for Buzz by Night.

Picture it – the dining room aglow with candles and beautiful flowers on white-clothed tables while you savour the pan-seared halfshell scallops with cauliflower foam, ocean trout pearls and scallop roe, followed by the mouthwatering confit duck and a stunning dessert of apple tarte tatin with cinnamon icecream.

Heaven! Reservations recommended.
Open for dinner Wednesday to Saturday with breakfast and lunch seven days.

THE newest entrant in the Emporium stakes is an attractive little place called Buzz. It had been open only 10 days when we visited, but was already showing all the form of an experienced competitor.

It distinguishes itself with the sub-title Food, Drink, Experience, although the experience isn't really very different from the best places in this creme-de-la-creme precinct. It's pretty enough, with a red-and-white-striped awning and seat cushions striped with the South Sydney Rabbitohs colours of red and green. Its wide interior spaces open seamlessly on to the footpath, making it immediately welcoming.

Chef Phillip Cox has kept the menu simple, short and enticing and he's allowed many of the special breakfast dishes to morph into all-day meals. For example, you can eat the creamed eggs (Buzz-speak for up-market scrambled) with roasted field mushrooms and rocket ($14) whenever you want to.
