A Canberra foodie's adventures
Located upstairs at the Fyshwick Fresh Food Markets, Winifred’s Place is a much more feminine (fluffy pink cushions, candles and rose gold decor) version of its sister restaurant Chez Frederic (CF).

The New Acton precinct around No Name Lane has sprouted several new eateries. One of which is Terra, focusing on seasonal fresh produce and a rotisserie cooking all sorts of proteins.
