It isnโt exactly in the best location โ 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…
The last few times I’ve been to Morks, I’ve never had the opportunity to try out the desserts. I was determined to try it out last Friday night. There were 2 desserts available that night – the sweet egg in hay and Grandma’s Garden. My partner and I chose both to share. The sweet egg […] Read more…

I’d been wanting to try out Adriano Zumbo’s patisserie for nearly 2 years, but since no one else I know likes desserts and sweets, there was never an opportunity to go. I was determined to try out the dessert train and patisserie at the Star during my trip to Sydney over the long weekend. My […] Read more…
Warning: this post is photo heavy. When my friends and I arrived at the Grounds of Alexandria at 10.30am on a Sunday morning, it was jam packed with people.
