We recently went to Hayman Island in the Whitsundays for a holiday. There is only one resort โ the Intercontinental Hayman Island Resort on the entire island. A buffet breakfast is included in our room rate and the buffet itself does not disappoint. Breakfast is at the Pacific Restaurant. I did make breakfast reservations but […] Read more…
I’ve dined at Korean restaurant Sam Si Sek Kki in Mitchell a few times now so it’s about time I write a post about it. First of all, the entrance is wheel friendly with a ramp and automatic door that opens outwards. Upon entering, there’s a sign that asks us to wait to be seated. […] Read more…
If you’re up for a short drive away from the ACT, check out Little Sutton Bakery in Sutton NSW. I have no idea what it was like before, but they have obviously renovated and the place looks great. There are fresh breads baked daily, freshly baked hot pies (the pie menu is on the wall) […] Read more…
I love tiramisu. So here’s a list of thoughts on Canberra’s tiramisu scene. I know there’s heaps more places to try, I’ll get to them eventually. Disclaimer: The standards of tiramisu may be different depending on the day and depending on who makes them. My opinions may change if I were to go back and […] Read more…
Note: I was invited to dine at The Marion, however all opinions are my own. Iโve dined at Walter Cafรฉ at the new establishment at Regatta Point, but had not been to or seen The Marion (next door) until this invitation arose. Thereโs a reception desk outside the main dining room, where a gentleman in […] Read more…
Besides attending the launch party when Ganjees moved from Bruce to Braddon, I hadn’t had an opportunity to try out the restaurant. I finally make it there for lunch on my day off, and choose to sit outside as it is a sunny day. There are mocktails, lassis and soft drinks listed under ‘Rickshaw Refreshers’. […] Read more…
My friend and I have heard good things about Hachiko in Belconnen, a Japanese fusion restaurant, so we made a lunch date to try it out. It’s a little difficult to find as the entrance is more towards the boardwalk and there isn’t any signage outside that day. In all honesty, it’s easier to choose […] Read more…
Note: I was invited to dine at Alcove, however all opinions are my own. Have you heard about Alcove? Itโs a cosy little bar in Braddon and it has introduced a new concept of 5 canapรฉs matched with cocktails. I am invited to experience Alcoveโs new season menu and take a friend along. Thereโs no […] Read more…
In case you hadn’t heard, the Tiger Lane dining precinct will bring 12 new hawker-style dining and bar outlets to Canberra Centre (expected by the end of the year). The Tiger Lane test kitchen opened a few weeks ago offering an $85 dinner set menu which I haven’t had the chance to try. But when […] Read more…
The popular Short Eats van opened a cafe in Woden a few months ago. I never got a chance to try the van (too far away from me) so I was excited to try the cafe. There’s much to choose from the menu. I pick the three house made curries with roti ($18). Two of […] Read more…
