38 Espresso advertises itself as the Kingston Foreshore’s only espresso bar and its first day of trading was today. I rocked up this morning to see all their outdoor tables full of early morning risers. Because it is an espresso bar, it only offers coffee and a few pastries – croissants, muffins and danishes (today […] Read more…
Croissant D’or finally opened today at Westfield Woden. I’ve been walking past anticipating its opening for the last few weeks as it was meant to open in September. I love the feature wall they have of Paris and the Eiffel Tower. Itโs quite a small space and only fits a few tables and chairs. There […] Read more…
On a day off, I decided to head out to Hume to try out Bread Nerds for lunch. Having seen it at the Kingston Bus Depot markets (also trading as That Bagel Place) and reading some good reviews about it, I thought it was time to give it a go. Bread Nerds is located in […] Read more…
I finally got to try out one of Mork’s signature dishes on Saturday night. The Angel Prawns. I’d seen these back in their Florey location but they weren’t part of the tasting menu I was trying out, so I was eager to go back for them. At $24 for this entree of 6 prawns, it […] Read more…

I ordered the deluxe non vegetarian thali ($23.90) because it provides a little bit of everything. What the menu doesn’t indicate is that you […] Read more…
During my weekend in Sydney, I was strolling through Potts Point in the morning when I noticed a rather busy cafe on Challis Street with outdoor diners enjoying the sunshine. La Buvette is also rated quite highly on Urbanspoon so I decided to pop in for breakfast the following morning. We scored a table outside […] Read more…
I was in Sydney over the long weekend for the International Fleet Review. A few of us stayed in Potts Point which has quite a few funky cafes and restaurants. We asked reception for an idea of some good restaurants within walking distance to our hotel. Cafe Sopra at Fratelli Fresh (just above Woolworths) was […] Read more…
I’d been wanting to try out Adriano Zumbo’s patisserie for nearly 2 years, but since no one else I know likes desserts and sweets, there was never an opportunity to go. I was determined to try out the dessert train and patisserie at the Star during my trip to Sydney over the long weekend. My […] Read more…

We were told that the wait for a table would be over an hour. After hearing and reading good reviews of this place, we were willing […] Read more…
