The challenge was set in January this year. Lunch with a few girlfriends at China Doll in Woolloomooloo and talk of ditching new year's resolutions for realising our life-long wish lists. One of mine was to eat at all top 100 restaurants in Australia as determined by Gourmet Traveller. Making the goal time-relevant however, I had two years to do it. So, sometime in January 2009 I must have eaten at all 100 of Australia's top restaurants. A challenging task as Australia is a big country, and not all of our great restaurants are in the capital cities. However, my new life motto is this: Born to try!
Now some people might say that I'm cheating by crossing off those restaurants that I have already been too. Perhaps they're right. However, a further challenge is that you often want to go back to those that you love, so in fact, many have had multiple visits.
Why the blog?
Well, why not document this foodie's journey? Moreover, my opinions are sometimes different to those of the Gourmet Traveller editors. So I wanted to share my journey with others who care about the dining experience. I hope you enjoy it.

good on you Eva, for those of us with small kids that don't get out much we can enjoy your experiences vicariously, and there might even be one or two that I have actually been to in there!
