8Things
The premise is simple, eight dishes drawn from eight countries, a single trip around the world down the middle of Katoomba Street, and it has held since 2017. What makes it genuinely useful to plant-based travellers is that nearly every one of those dishes carries a vegan or vegetarian version, so a table splitting a Mediterranean plate, a burger and a curry rarely leaves anyone ordering off to the side. The format is casual street food, counter-led, equally happy as takeaway or a quick sit-down, open through the middle of the day and into the evening seven days. It reads as a burger joint from the street, but the kitchen's habit of shadowing each dish with a meat-free build is what earns it a place among the mountains' more reliable options for eating plant-based without planning ahead.
