Restaurant reviews

In addition to juggling a career in communications & PR for an international food company, Mysaucepan is a regular food reviewer for The Sydney Morning Herald’s Good Food Guide & Good Food Under $30 and has been doing so for many years.

Restaurant reviews conducted for the Good Food Guide by Mysaucepan are not published on this blog to maintain our absolute independence.

All invitations, complimentary meals and products are explicitly declared at the end of each blog post. ChopinandMysaucepan are also keen to interview chefs and restaurateurs about food trends and the philosophy that drives their food businesses. (See chef and restaurateur interviews here).

Although we prefer to dine anonymously, either one or both Chopinand & Mysaucepan will also consider attending restaurant reviews upon invitation provided there is no conflict of interest with Mysaucepan’s role as a food reviewer for The Sydney Morning Herald.

All restaurant reviews on ChopinandMysaucepan are objective, honest and fair assessments of the dining experience on the day of attendance. This means our reviews will include all positive and negative aspects of the dining experience to maintain absolute integrity with readers. We also reserve the right to not publish our review in the event we feel it is not suitable to do so.

All enquiries and invitations for restaurant reviews can be sent via email here.
