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…
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…
Remedy by Lonsdale Street Roasters and Morks Thai recently introduced a joint breakfast collaboration at the Kingston Foreshore. Located out the front of Remedy, a table and BBQ are set up to cook the day’s simple menu. There are only two options – both $10 each. These vertical gardens are everywhere now. I like it!

I walked past Paleo Perfection Espresso Bar the other week, and after finding its Facebook page, I found out it was opening today. As mentioned in my previous post, they had a stall at the Bus Depot Markets selling chocolates, muffins and other sweet things. Their signage states no dairy, grain, gluten, peanut, cane sugar […] Read more…
Paleo Perfection Espresso Bar is another coffee joint opening up at the Kingston Foreshore joining 38 Espresso and Remedy by Lonsdale Street Roasters. They had a stall at the Bus Depot Markets selling chocolates, muffins and other sweet things. Best of all, their signage states no dairy, grain, gluten, peanut, cane sugar or artificial sweeteners […] Read more…
Max Brenner opened up at the Kingston Foreshore a few months ago. The only other Max Brenner location is in Belconnen, quite far from me, so I don’t often get a chance to drop in. The other weekend, I decided to have something chocolatey and popped into the new store. It was early morning so […] Read more…
Mrs Sackville recently opened up at the Kingston Foreshore. It’s not along the main strip by the lake, but faces the Bus Depot markets. A lovely framed menu stands outside. Upon entering, the first thing you notice is the mismatched furniture – wooden tables, cute cushions on the seats and benches, then glass tables and […] Read more…
The Rum Bar opened up last Friday and I only knew about it when I walked past after having some $1 oysters at C Dine Bar. The place was packed out and when I walked inside to look at a menu, I noticed there were complimentary tapas that night – a foodie’s dream! However, the […] Read more…
The latest Lonsdale Street Roasters project, Remedy, opened up at the Kingston Foreshore in late December. Remedy only offers coffee and some pastries – no cooked food. This provides some strong competition, mainly for 38 Espresso, and for the other cafes offering coffee. I headed there on their first day of trade for 2014. Opposite […] Read more…
As I walk past the Kingston Foreshore, it’s exciting to see multiple shopfronts being fitted out for the new ventures about to open. A Canberra Times article lists all the new businesses, mostly restaurants, cafes and bars that are to open. I decided to do a bit more google-fu-ing into the bars that are opening […] Read more…
