One of the cafes that has long been on my list of places to try is suburban favourite Red Brick Espresso at the Curtin Shops. This cafe has been around for a while and it seems that everyone I know has dined here. I knew it was located at the Curtin Shops but I didn’t […] Read more…

I used to grab take-away lunch in Woden from a cafe called Pure Oxygen. They made some fantastic toasted sandwiches. To my dismay, they closed down the Woden shop to move to Deakin under new management and a new name – Doubleshot. That was late last year. I finally made it there over the Anzac […] Read more…
Some friends and I wanted to try out Chatterbox in Belconnen and made it there one Saturday morning. There are bright yellow banners displayed outside so you can’t miss it.

Great thing about Mocan and Green Grout is that its open for brunch both Saturday and Sunday which is quite rare for cafรฉs in Civic. The cute and quirky little cafรฉ reminds me of the cafรฉs […] Read more…
Loading Zone in Civic recently opened its doors for Saturday brunch. And of course, I wanted to try it out ๐ I ordered the Baked Eggs with tomato sugo, fennel, chick peas and sausage.

I’d heard of Pulp Kitchen, a European brasserie, but hadn’t had an opportunity to check it out. A friend and I decided to head there for brunch on a Saturday morning.
