I heard that I Love Thai in Manuka had opened up earlier this year, and when I saw a Groupon voucher advertised for the restaurant, I snapped it up. For $39, three courses were provided for two people. A friend and I caught up over dinner to try it out this cheap deal. I Love […] Read more…
Pod Food in Pialligo recently introduced a breakfast degustation to its weekend menu. 4 breakfast courses (two sweet and two savoury) for $40. I’ve only been to Pod Food for lunch, during my pre-blogging days, and I remember loving every course of the 3-course set lunch menu. I’ve been meaning to go back but never […] Read more…
C Dine Bar recently changed its menu. Last week, it introduced its new โFresh Catch Basketโ, that’s half price on Tuesdays for $25 (usually $50). Each basket can be shared between two so that’s amazing value. Being a seafood lover, I thought this sounded like a great deal that I just couldnโt pass up. Between […] Read more…
A friend showed me a photo of this amazing looking dessert at C Dine Bar, so I headed there for a quick lunch and dessert one sunny day. I hadn’t had a proper meal at C Dine since September last year, with the exception of its Buck-a-shuck Fridays or $1 oysters (now replaced with 1kg […] Read more…
After my having lunch at Local Press Cafe, I headed back the next day with friends for brunch. The one page menu makes it easier to decide on what to order. Cups and a water jug are provided after sitting down. The menu does not include drinks so I didn’t know how much my soy […] Read more…

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…
I’ve been keeping an eye out on Local Press Cafe at the Kingston Foreshore ever since I spotted its sign back in January. The sign immediately conveyed a natural and raw vibe. It finally opened its doors last weekend but I didn’t get a chance to try it out until today. Excited that something was […] Read more…
A few years ago, one of my work colleagues told me she had found the best sourdough hot cross buns in Canberra at Danny’s Bakery in Narrabundah. I always remembered this, Easter after Easter, but never managed to get down there to try some. She reminded me about it again last week so I made […] Read more…
A friend organised dinner at Camellia Restaurant, a Sri Lankan restaurant in Manuka. I’ve heard and read good things about this place and was eager to try it out on a Friday night. The menu is relatively short with one page of entrees, one page of mains and a third of a page of dessert. […] Read more…
My partner organised my birthday dinner with a group of friends at Morks. I love Morks! We all partook in the 8 course tasting menu ($95 without wine, $125 with wine). After my last experience with the tasting menu at the previous Florey location, I was keen to try out the updated menu. Course 1 […] Read more…
