Sam Si Se Kki Mitchell Korean food

Sam Si Se Kki (Korean)

I’ve dined at Korean restaurant Sam Si Sek Kki in Mitchell a few times now so it’s about time I write a post about it. First of all, the entrance is wheel friendly with a ramp and automatic door that opens outwards. Upon entering, there’s a sign that asks us to wait to be seated. […] Read more…

Short Eats Woden three curries and naan

Short Eats (Woden)

The popular Short Eats van opened a cafe in Woden a few months ago. I never got a chance to try the van (too far away from me) so I was excited to try the cafe. There’s much to choose from the menu. I pick the three house made curries with roti ($18). Two of […] Read more…

For $12, you can order a Devonshire Tea at Kitchen Garden at Rodney’s in Pialligo. A Devonshire Tea consists of scones with jam and cream, and a choice of tea/coffee.

SoupStone lobster noodles

SoupStone

Earlier in the year, my foodie friends and I celebrated Lunar New Year’s Eve at SoupStone. Located at the Australian National University near the bus station, it can be easy to walk past and miss it. When we arrive, the table is set up and ready with two high chairs, plastic cutlery, plates and cups […] Read more…

Miss Van's Canberra lunch

Miss Van’s

Since its shipping container days, the return of Miss Van’s has been highly anticipated. Now set up in Civic, the restaurant is difficult to get in to without a booking. I thought it was a good opportunity to book lunch here for my birthday earlier in the year. I like that the online booking form […] Read more…

Myanmar Corner Canberra laksa

Myanmar Corner

Myanmar Corner at the Casey shops is a little gem of a restaurant. I’ve dined here only about 3 times as it’s located quite far from me – I wish it was closer! Let’s start with an entree. I love anything duck. So when I see shredded duck and onion puffs ($9 for three pieces) […] Read more…

Baogers @ Super Bao

Note: I was invited to try Super Bao in Woden, however all opinions are my own. My last blog post on Super Bao was nearly 3 years ago when they opened their Dickson restaurant.

Sonamu Korean Canberra bibimbap

Sonamu Korean

As we navigate the new normal living with COVID, I’ve been trying to find eateries that aren’t packed with people inside. I’m happy to find that Sonamu Korean has plenty of dining spaces inside and out. Standing outside, it doesn’t look like a big space. However there are tables out the front, a front indoor […] Read more…

Bingsu dessert @ Super Emoji

Note: I was invited to try out the new bingsu range, however all opinions are my own. Super Emoji is known for its bubble teas and iced drinks, mini cake boxes, souffle and various filled choux pastries. There’s a lot more on offer at the City Walk megastore. Late last year, Super Emoji introduced its […] Read more…
