Note: I was invited to dine in, however all opinions are my own. We headed to Japanese fusion restaurant Chop Chop in Civic for a quick weekday lunch and seriously enjoyed all the dishes.

Note: I was invited to dine at Gami, however all opinions are my own. Gami Chicken and Beer is tucked away at the Canberra Centre along Bunda Street. I haven’t actually been back since my last review in 2019, so when the team asked me to come by again to try some of the new […] Read more…
