Myanmar Corner at the Casey shops is a little gem of a restaurant. I’ve dined here only about 3 times as it’s located quite far from me – I wish it was closer! Let’s start with an entree. I love anything duck. So when I see shredded duck and onion puffs ($9 for three pieces) […] Read more…
Baogers @ Super Bao
Note: I was invited to try Super Bao in Woden, however all opinions are my own. My last blog post on Super Bao was nearly 3 years ago when they opened their Dickson restaurant. Since then, Super Bao have expanded into Verity Lane in the city, and now with a shipping container in Woden. The […] Read more…
Local home bakeries in Canberra
I thought I’d put together a list of small home bakeries around Canberra that I’ve ordered from or come across the last few months. There are certainly a lot that have popped up! In no particular order: Doughnut Girls I initially posted a bit about Doughnut Girls in my Lockdown Discoveries blog post. I’ve tried […] Read more…
Sonamu Korean
As we navigate the new normal living with COVID, I’ve been trying to find eateries that aren’t packed with people inside. I’m happy to find that Sonamu Korean has plenty of dining spaces inside and out. Standing outside, it doesn’t look like a big space. However there are tables out the front, a front indoor […] Read more…
Onzieme
The newest eatery to open at the Kingston shops, is Onzieme, headed by Louis Couttoupes who had a pop-up a few doors down. I dined there with a friend for dinner and the earliest that they could fit us in was a Wednesday evening. Weekends were solidly booked out for the next few weeks. It’s […] Read more…
Bingsu dessert @ Super Emoji
Note: I was invited to try out the new bingsu range, however all opinions are my own.

Late last year, Super Emoji introduced its […] Read more…

Get Crackin Brownie Slabs
A discovery that came out of lockdown are the loaded brownie slabs from Get Crackin (the same team behind Get Crackin Creme Brulee). These are almost 1kg loaded brownie slabs with various toppings to choose from – mars bar, triple choc, peanut butter, biscoff, choc mint, smores and more. I chose the Mars bar brownie […] Read more…
Gill’s Patisserie
Gill’s Patisserie is tucked away in Fyshwick, distributing its goodies made on site to other cafes around Canberra. But you can also sit down in their cafe if you want a bite to eat. On my first visit during lockdown, I wanted to try the kimchi twisters that I’ve seen advertised on Gill’s social media. […] Read more…
Sakuraco
Note: I was given a Sakuraco box in exchange for a review on this blog. All opinions are my own. Up until a few months ago, I did not know you could get subscription boxes filled with all sorts of treats from around the world. I only found out about these when they started popping […] Read more…
