I always get a quick takeaway. My favourites are their vegetarian curry puffs and Pad Thai. Fresh, tasty food and friendly service. Grab an Appletiser on the way out.

Thank God for Spice & Wine — my local Thai that also happens to be well above average in the delicious department. You see, I love Thai food. Even relatively bad Thai food by most people’s standards. I know it’s bad, but like a 3-legged dog, I love it all the more for the awkward stares, unimpressed looks and pity it gets. For those who are pickier than I(it’s not hard, people) Spice & Wine does not fall into the 3-legged dog category, but instead rates up there with some of the better Thai food you’ve ever indulged in. The Naked Fish is an easy dining highlight, my partner literally licked the bowl his yellow curry came in, the cashew nut chicken is perfectly seasoned and the steamed veggies come with *both* western and Chinese broccoli. But beyond all this,(and their liberal BYO policy) there is a blond braided waitress that just gets. sh*t. done. She is amazing in every definition of the word and makes the dining experience that much better. As do their inside heat lamps and blankets. Listen, I stumbled upon this spot because it’s my local. That said, I’d consider this«go out of your way for» Thai. It’s at the terminus of all the Bondi buses, so hop on one and experience this spot for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.

Had dinner there last night having actually planned to eat at one of the other places near by, however it was closed. We ordered a noodle dish and the beef salad to share between two of us. It was really tasty, fresh and just what we were after. We will definitely go back again.

Banana flower salad. Sexy duck stir fry. Naked Fish. I knew I’d seen these familiar yet unusual menu items somewhere else in Sydney, and indeed a waiter at Spice & Wine informed me they have the same owners as the Spice Market mini-chain. This relatively new Thai restaurant follows the same formula for success as its counterparts — low lighting, simple, timber-clad interiors and friendly service. Oh, and let’s not forget delicious food. Friends and I were only after takeaway; our phone order would be ready in just ten minutes, they explained. On arrival, the waiter who served us took the time to ask if any of us preferred our dishes a little spicier than usual, and accordingly added in a complimentary dish of smokey chilli sauce. While I’m a fan of the abovementioned items I’d already tried at their Kirribilli Spice Market outpost, this lazy Sunday evening called for tried-and-tested dishes. Chicken satay skewers, beef pad see ew and chicken pad thai were well-executed favourites, followed by an indulgent red duck curry featuring sweet ‘n’ juicy lychees.
