A Canberra foodie's adventures
I’ve been to Roy Jr a couple of times now. Located on the ground floor of an office building in the middle of the city, the cafΓ© is spacious and seems to include a lobby area close to the elevators. I must admit I do feel like Iβm banished from the main dining area each […] Read more…
You may have dined in at Dicksonβs Highroad trying various items for their brunch and all day menu. Well get ready, Highroad have launched their dinner service. We are invited to dine in and check it out. Thereβs champagne and cocktails floating around. I ask for something non-alcoholic and am happy when they have some […] Read more…
Note: I was invited to dine at Antica Ricetta (the first time) and paid on the second occasion. All opinions are my own. Tucked away along a little alleyway at the Manuka shops is Antica Ricetta. It has been there for years and I do remember trying it at least a decade ago and not […] Read more…
Note: I was invited to dine in at Kivotos, but all opinions expressed are my own I havenβt really had Greek food before and have never visited the country. Iβm very excited when Kivotos restaurant in Braddon treats us to the Share the Love set menu dinner. Drinks-wise, we follow the theme of the night […] Read more…
Note: I was invited to dine in at Rosemary, however all opinions are my own. Rosemary by EightyTwenty opened up in Kingston and serves the EightyTwenty cafΓ© food by day. But did you know that at night, thereβs a separate completely different dinner menu? Iβm invited to try it out and choose a Friday night […] Read more…

Our server asks which type of high tea weβre after β traditional, with sparkling, or the upgraded free-flowing sparkling option. We all […] Read more…
The Med opened a couple of months ago in Barton. As the name suggests, it offers modernmediterranean cuisine like dips and pide, saganaki, marinated sardines, lamb kofte, zaβatar fries, andvarious items from the oven and grill. We arenβt hungry enough to do the banquet option (at $75 a head), so order a few dishes from […] Read more…
Pomegranate is a restaurant Iβve walked past over the last decade and I finally booked a table to visit with a friend. Itβs lovely inside with hints of Turkey everywhere from the lanterns, tiles and eye. The menu is Modern Australian with Turkish influence. Weβre not hungry enough for a banquet, and we skip any […] Read more…
My friends and I booked into Beltana Farm, the newest restaurant open in Pialligo. No it doesnβtreplace the former Pialligo Estate, itβs at a completely different address. I donβt even remember whatwas here before this place. Iβm a bit worried about parking as I drive in as I know there areroadworks along Beltana Farm. Luckily, […] Read more…
Located in Grazier Lane in Belconnen, you can find Japanese restaurant Ikko. There are plenty of tables inside and QR codes on each table for easy ordering and payment. I try the curry yaki udon ($22) because 1) I love Japanese curry, and 2), it looks so different to others Iβve tried. The medium-sized low […] Read more…
