What I’m craving: I can’t wait to travel to Sydney again, where I’ll be sure to visit Chinta Kechil and order the Cheeky Bird crispy chicken or the Spicy Spicy Calamari, prior to heading to one of the nearby pubs.

The neighbourhood local
Donna Duggan, Lifestyle Editor
What I’m craving: It’s not so much the meal I’m looking forward to at the end of self-isolation, but the freedom to meet with friends and family at a local restaurant, which we used to do a least once a week.
I’m also looking forward to the day when I can return to my local cafe to enjoy a coffee in the sun, treat the kids to fresh sushi on the way home from school and return to my daily drop-in at the supermarket for what I need to get us through 24-hours of nourishment, instead of two weeks of isolation.
