If you can, make your way over to the Bathers Pavillion at Balmoral Beach for Sat or Sunday brunch or lunch -- you'll be glad you did. Bring your swimsuit as well. :)

NB -- you can't make a reservation -- just show up and get your name on the list. The wait shouldn't be too bad and it well worth it.

I would suggest you go through some of the lists in Time Out Sydney website.

There are a couple of big chain super markets at CBD area if you're staying in the city (Woolworths at the Wynyard station and a Coles on George and King st)
Otherwise, you can get fresh veggie and meat at China town and they even have markets on the weekends at Market City. And you're bound to have at least a Woollie or Coles in any suburb to get your own food.
