A Canberra foodie's adventures
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…
The last few times I’ve been to Morks, I’ve never had the opportunity to try out the desserts. I was determined to try it out last Friday night. There were 2 desserts available that night – the sweet egg in hay and Grandma’s Garden. My partner and I chose both to share. The sweet egg […] Read more…

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…
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…
Morks has opened its doors at the Kingston Foreshore. Luckily it looks like a much bigger space than their previous Florey spot. Located next door to C Dine Bar, there is outdoor dining available too. There are four items on their weekend brunch menu such as congee, and poached eggs with a Thai twist. Brunch […] Read more…
I headed back to C Dine Bar with some friends on a sunny Spring morning. I’d already tried out their $25 breakfast prefix menu a few weeks ago, but was keen to try it again. As it was such a beautiful day, we sat outside. The wooden benches were long and made comfortable with cushion […] Read more…
