Box Diner in Fyshwick is located on the outskirts of Fyshwick on Tennant Street, among some business centres. The place is easy to find and there is lots of parking available on the side of the road. The cafe is on the ground floor on the corner of a large building. With the sun shining […] Read more…
For lunch, a few work colleagues and I caught up at the Asian Noodle House in Woden. They do good laksa deals here which is what I had previously. It was a warm day so I didn’t particularly feel like a hot laksa. I’m yet to find a place in Canberra that can do a […] Read more…
Caffe Cherry Beans is located in Westfield Woden near JB Hifi. It can easily be missed since it’s not anywhere near the food court or other dining places. I dropped in for an early breakfast before work. The layout of the cafe is open with plenty of tables and chairs. They have a decent menu […] Read more…
The Iron Knob Street Bakery and Delicatessan has been open for 3 months now. It isn’t exactly in the best location – located opposite DFO Fyshwick, near Chemist Warehouse and other stores in a small business centre area. It is a rather large place. Menus have been blown up and placed up on the windows […] Read more…
Sunday brunch with friends was had at 39 Steps in O’Connor. The café has charm with an eclectic mix of decor and a mish-mash of high and low tables, benches and chairs. There is artwork available for purchase on the walls. On a cold rainy day, it was lovely sitting inside this cosy homely cafe. […] Read more…
Along with most of Canberra, I headed to Jamie’s Italian when it opened to the general public on Wednesday night. We didn’t have a booking. The website claims that online bookings are being accepted but it’s either a really bad booking system or most tables had been allocated, as I couldn’t book for any night […] Read more…
Lookout Red Hill Cafe & Bar has been on my list of places to try out for years now, along with Onred Restaurant. As the name suggests, it is located at the top of Red Hill and has amazing views of Canberra. It was a sunny warm day and I thought it was the perfect […] Read more…
I’ve found a hidden gem in Canberra – that is Rodney’s Garden Cafe in Pialligo (near the airport). The cafe is located within a plant nursery, Rodney’s Plants Plus, so this isn’t exactly on everyone’s radar. The doors into the cafe are a bit run down, but I love the cute mosaic sign on top. […] Read more…
On a Saturday morning at Loading Zone, it was only a short wait to get a table for 6 people (they don’t take bookings). The previous time I was here for brunch, I ordered the baked eggs which were divine. As much as I wanted to order it again, I thought I’d better try something […] Read more…
Ox Eatery located in the East Hotel in Kingston, offers a whole suckling pig fully cooked on their rotisserie with all the trimmings for $800. The pig feeds roughly 15 people. For my partner’s birthday, a pig was booked for dinner on Saturday night. We saw our pig on the spit when we walked in. […] Read more…
