All you can eat yumcha at Oh No in Manuka occurs on the first Sunday of each month (now $55 per person). My friend that made our booking received the yum cha menu via email a couple days before our lunch so they must change it up each time. I am very excited to see […] Read more…
I narrowed down my favourite eats of 2024 to a Top 6! Rosemary by Eightytwenty An outstanding dinner degustation in 2024 was at Rosemary by Eightytwenty starting off strong with focaccia, whipped ricotta and parsley oil (it doesn’t sound special but it is such a wow dish). I’m not sure if they will re-introduce this degustation but I’m […] Read more…
I used to love getting my coffees at Gus’ Place in the city so I’m really happy that sister café Good Neighbour opened in Kingston. With Gus’ staple items on the menu and a few new additions, Good Neighbour is proving to be a very popular destination. We’re talking 45min wait for coffees and food. […] Read more…
My friends and I try the $70 banquet from Lebanese restaurant Azima in Civic. There are plenty of tables inside and it’s quite spacious with a bar in the middle of the restaurant. We’re told all the food is served simultaneously, so there’s no staggering of dishes/courses. I start off with the Shia Zahra ($12) […] Read more…

But did you know that at night, there’s a separate completely different dinner menu? I’m invited to try it out and choose a Friday night […] Read more…
My friends and I enjoy a wonderful high tea at Louis in Barton. As one of my favourite restaurants (see previous dinner post here), I can’t help but go in with high expectations. Our server asks which type of high tea we’re after – traditional, with sparkling, or the upgraded free-flowing sparkling option. We all […] Read more…
My friends and I booked into Beltana Farm, the newest restaurant open in Pialligo. No it doesn’treplace the former Pialligo Estate, it’s at a completely different address. I don’t even remember whatwas here before this place. I’m a bit worried about parking as I drive in as I know there areroadworks along Beltana Farm. Luckily, […] Read more…
Located in Grazier Lane in Belconnen, you can find Japanese restaurant Ikko. There are plenty of tables inside and QR codes on each table for easy ordering and payment. I try the curry yaki udon ($22) because 1) I love Japanese curry, and 2), it looks so different to others I’ve tried. The medium-sized low […] Read more…
Hailing from New Zealand, with restaurants in Sydney and Melbourne, Botswana Butchery has opened in Canberra (which I later find out was with a little nudge from our ACT Chief Minister). My friend and I try it out for lunch as part of birthday week. Pull on the chopping knife handles of the restaurant door […] Read more…
