Waffle with banana and cream from La Galette de France, Station St Markets, Subiaco

Breakfast at the Station Street Markets in Subiaco is a great option if you feel like something savoury that’s not just variations of bacon and eggs and toast. We enjoyed a breakfast of Mexican, El Salvadorian, French and Vietnamese food.

Portofinos Restaurant, Mindarie

30 December 2010
Twice cooked crispy skin pork belly with apple puree, braised cabbage, seared scallops, Portofino's, Mindarie

Restaurant review. Delicious food with ocean views at this beachside restaurant. Magnificently rich tender pork belly and a cracking good toffee crust on the citrus creme brulee. I’d go back for the food, not the service.

The Chairman and Yip, Civic, Canberra

21 November 2010
Vanilla panna cotta with passionfruit sauce

Restaurant review. Fusion cuisine with silver service. The chef’s tasting menu was a glutton’s delight featuring seafood, pork, beef, mushrooms and the delicious signature duck and shitake pancakes. Exquisite desserts. Highly recommended.
