Australia is famous for its brunch and most importantly its healthy brunches. As a brunch addict it was the perfect place for me, so my trip was one very long brunch crawl.

In the first blog of a series of Australian blogs I’m telling you the best healthy brunch spots in Sydney.

Sydney is filled with health food restaurants, food shops and cafes. Every time you turn down a street you will see another spot featuring avocado on toast, Acai bowls, fresh fruit, juices, smoothies and raw desserts. Most places have plenty of sugar free, dairy free, gluten free options to suit everyone as well.

I went to many places for breakfast and brunch, although many were good not all of them made the cut. So only the best made the list. 

Sadhana Kitchen (Bondi or Enmore)

Best for Sweet brunches or colourful Salad Bowls.

• BONDI BOWL Roasted sweet potato, shredded carrot, house made kraut, smashed avo, coconut bacon, sautéed mushrooms, white bean beet hummus & caramelized tempeh on a bed of seasonal greens.
• EPIC ACAI (RAW)  Açai blended thick and creamy with banana and crisp fresh apples – loaded into a bowl with plenty of seasonal fruit and house-made grawnola
• BEST WAFFLES EVER  2 x gluten free and refined sugar superfood waffles topped with seasonal fruit, toasted coconut, lemon buttercream and maple syrup.
