If I'm not mistaken there is a Campos coffee at Newtown which is near Glebe. If you are into coffee I can recommend this.

193 Missenden Rd, Newtown NSW 2042

I seldom go to Glebe wish I could tell you more.

The rest of the days looks alright. I have many friends visited me these past few months and I basically bring them the same as yours for Day 2 and 3.

For food, yeah definitely try the Hurricane at Darling Harbour. But do book ahead first and tell them you want the river view. Its pretty pricey but very nice pork ribs.

Pancakes on the rocks at The Rocks is not bad. They open 24 hours.

Alternatively you can go Lowenbrau a german restaurant for their famous pork knuckle. Big portion. Their popular beer if you drink is the Hofbrau.

Morning try the cafe breakfast which costs around $16-20. Pricey but good experience.

Or you can eat at Japanese, Korean or other countries restaurant which I think are heaps better than what you can find back in Msia.

For adapters, I do suggest get it from Msia. Its not expensive here you can get for few dollars in "hot dollar" Asian shop but you won't want to spend time looking for a cheap one around.

A lightweight power bank may help for walking around.

going to sydney in 1 month times at early july. .

Plan to travel by MyMulti 3 pass
5 days in sydney, day trip to blue mountain and hunter valley.

I m not a wine person, anyone can share their experience with hunter valley tour? any tour company for recomendation for the day trip?

For blue mountain, i think i will travel on my own via train then using the explorer bus there instead of joining a tour..

Since it's winter  in sydney during july, any idea what type of clothes i should bring? will it be colder in blue mountain?

Not sure about Hunter Valley tour but the weather in July will be cold. It is the peak winter month.

Blue mountain is fine to travel by public transport though I never tried before mainly drive. It will be very cold. Many times I went there weather was pretty dull and raining and it can be windy.

If you going to do some bushwalk, wear moist wicking material thermal and a good outer later for windproof or rainproof. Bring a lightweight glove, beannie and a scarf if possible. They are light and you won't regret it when the time comes you really need em.
