Contributor | Urban List, Sydney, NSW

Eloise is a contributor at Urban List Sydney—researching, reading, writing (and occasionally taste-testing) all things food, drink, lifestyle and culture. 

In her spare time, you'll probably find her searching across Sydney for a decent matcha, taking an early-morning pilates class, or housing a few spicy margaritas with her girlfriends—because life is about balance, right?

As a Libra, her biggest fear and greatest accomplishment is a double-sided menu—too much to choose from, but all the more opportunities to be blown away. Sydney-born and bred, contributing to Urban List is an opportunity for her to test her local knowledge (and inform her upcoming dinner plans).
