5 Aussie Food Bloggers to Follow in 2017

Do you love eating out? Do you relish discovering new places to eat and drink? If you're always on the hunt for new dining experiences in Australia, following food bloggers is one of the best ways to get insider information on the best eateries in the country. They'll help you find some rare gems that are off the beaten track and new places popping up across Australia.

Prepare for a foray of breathtaking images of exquisite food dishes and mouth-watering cocktails. Of course, food bloggers aren't always posting about their visits to great restaurants – many also detail their own food creations as well. The following are five of our favourite Australian food bloggers that you simply need to follow in 2017.

1.    Jugernauts

Whether you live in Sydney or are just visiting, Jugernauts is a great place to start when trying to decide where to eat or drink in the city. Consistently seeking out and writing about all the new hot spots in Sydney, this relaxed, simple blog features honest reviews and lots of pictures of restaurants all about town.

Coming from architectural and design backgrounds, the writers blog about their complete dining experience, including the decor and location as well as the quality of the food. Check out their guides to the best desserts in Sydney and the best burgers in Sydney.

2.     George Eats

Australian blogger Georgia is constantly reporting on great eats from her travels in Australia and abroad, putting together posts on her favourite places to eat and drink in each city that she visits. After years of publishing Instagram posts of her own mouth-watering creations, Georgia also now has her own e-book, and regularly shares her favourite recipes accompanied by excellent preparation guides and images.

As a freelance food menu stylist and photographer, her presentation is always amazing, and budding cooking enthusiasts can learn a lot from her. We just love her Gluten and Grain Free Snickers Shortbreads. Divine!

3.  Grab Your Fork

Grab Your Fork focuses on cheap eats around Australia and the world. It covers all different kinds of cuisines, but the writer Helen claims she has a particular fondness for 'offal and fried chicken'. Simply and sumptuously written and heavy on the visuals, this blog has covered Sydney institutions like El Jannah in Granville and the famous Bondi Icebergs.

A particular feature of Grab Your Fork is it's extensive navigation bar, where you can choose from categories like particular locations in Sydney, different cuisines, and other categories that interest you. The blog also includes chats with famous chefs, Helen's most memorable meals, the best markets in Sydney, as well as where to find the most fabulous food trucks and a plethora of international food-hunting anecdotes. Our favourite one of these would have to be 'Hunting for the Best Cronut in NYC'. Sign us up for that search please!

4.  Boy Eats World

Boy Eats World combines the ultimate blogging trio; food, kids and travel. Written by food writer Aleney for her gastronome children 'Raffles' and his baby sister 'Sugarpuff', these kids (along with their Mum) galavant the globe through their food choices, creating, experiencing and cooking the ultimate in international eats.

Along with beautiful recipes like 'Blue Swimmer Crab Tarts' and 'Wattleseed, Macadamia and Ginger Muffins', there's also loads of handy info about travelling with kids (including skiing and cruising), chats with successful restaurateurs, and info about world holidays and festivals. Boy Eats World is a charming mix of family-friendly, beautiful and delicious food.

5.   Not Quite Nigella

Possibly one of the most famous Australian food bloggers, Lorraine Elliott or 'Not Quite Nigella' has followed on from her blog by releasing a best-selling cookbook. She continues to churn out great blog posts about her delightful food and cake creations, as well as reviews of restaurants and eateries across Australia.

The great thing about 'Not Quite Nigella' is that she doesn't just focus on high end restaurants, despite her fame. You will still regularly find reviews on the blog about gastropubs, small cafes and side-street eateries that she actively seeks out in her quest to consistently explore Australian cuisine. Our favourite from her blog is this list of the 10 best fish and chips places in Sydney.
