9 Instagram Foodies You Should Follow

Check out these Instagram accounts if you’re in the mood for some #foodporn.


1. @notquitenigella

As the reigning queen of the Sydney food blogosphere, it has to be number one on the list. Not only does Lorraine Elliot share her own recipes (like her Christmas in July chocolate fruit mince tarts) but you can also froth over the yum cha, gelato and macaroons she gets as well.

BEST FOR: keen cooks, wannabe domestic goddesses

2. @breakfastinsydney

Breakfast isn’t just about Weetbix and Milo, and this Instagram profile proves that it is the most important and delicious meal of the day. Highlights include corn fritters from The Book Kitchen in Surry Hills and lemon and poppy seed hotcakes from Showbox Coffee Brewers in Manly.

BEST FOR: people who like food served on wooden boards, Surry Hills residents

3. @cocohealth

If you ever need to prove to someone that healthy food isn’t just salad leaves, show them this. Some highlights from these mouth-wateringly good photos are the sweet potato chocolate brownies, Moroccan shakshuka and raw, vegan cheesecake. Guilt-free and delicious, it’s a win-win situation here.

BEST FOR: health fanatics and breakfast enthusiasts

4. @grabyourfork

Kate Moss famously said, “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels,” but we beg to differ judging by this profile. The monthly columnist for Time Out Sydney shares pictures of treats such as fried chicken, bone marrow and creamy cakes, so don’t expect to find a kale smoothie on here any time soon.

BEST FOR: meat lovers, comfort food fans

5. @imstillhungry_blog

Michael Shen’s blog is so fancy that you almost don’t want to eat the food he shares! Whilst there are some good looking burgers and coffees in there, have a look at the unusual ones like the "mulched pine caramels - fresh pine (yes, literally) dusted over fair trade chocolate” with a salted caramel centre.

BEST FOR: fine diners, adventurous eaters

6. @chocolatesuze

As the name suggests, this blogger likes her sweet treats and has pictures from cakes to crepes that make you want to run to your nearest bakery ASAP. She does enjoy the odd burger too, but it’s probably best to avoid this one if you’re on a weight loss mission.

BEST FOR: sweet tooths, adults whose diet resembles that of a fussy child

7. @cookrepublic

Attention all hipsters and lovers of good photography, this may be the one for you. Fresh and elegant, it is also the winner of Best Australian Blog 2013, so you’re in for a treat. Have a look at the Quinoa And Pea Spice Croquettes, one of the most popular recipes on the blog. Clean eating never looked so good.

BEST FOR: fresh food fans, people who would rather die than eat Macca’s

8. @conocana

This is possibly one of the prettiest foodstagrams to come out of Sydney. Not only will the bright colours and fresh fruits and veggies catch your eye, but the pictures for vegan pizza and sushi will also inspire you to get creative for your next dinner party.

BEST FOR: vegans and health fanatics

9. @xxjenliu

The days of student food consisting of mi goreng and beans on toast are now over. This UNSW student and brunch enthusiast certainly knows where to go for some good grub in Sydney, whether it’s Eggs Benedict in Bondi or cronuts in Newtown.

BEST FOR: Sunday brunchers, chocoholics
