Brunch @ A. Baker

As it was such a beautiful day, we sat outside. The wooden benches were long and made comfortable with cushion […] Read more…

Banquet @ Dickson Dumpling House

My foodie work colleague calls me the dumpling queen. I absolutely love eating them!! The Dickson Dumpling House was chosen as a venue for one my work dinners.

Mork’s Tasting Menu

As the big news at the moment is that Mork’s is shutting down its Florey restaurant and moving to the Kingston Foreshore (opening mid-September 2013), and may be changing up the menu and most likely its prices too, a few friends and I decided to try out their tasting menu. Mork’s is located in a […] Read more…
