Christmas is one of my favourite holidays. I love getting gifts for people I care about, spending time with family and, perhaps best of all, the seasonal treats! Although Australia gets a hot Christmas, with sand as snow, I am a sucker for a warm cup of tea or piping hot chocolate. I do love…… Continue reading Favourite Festive Sips

Progressive Lunch or Mad Rush?
Recently, a foodie friend and I enjoyed a progressive lunch at Portside Wharf. The food was amazing, but the time between meals and the serving sizes left us in a food coma by the end of it! While it was great to go to so many restaurants I have been itching to try, there were…… Continue reading Progressive Lunch or Mad Rush?
Tavalon Tea Trip
In case you didn’t know, I am pretty obsessed with tea. So when Tavalon Tea invited me to their cafe in Garden City for some tea and sweets I said yes quicker than lightning! I visited the venue when the lounge first opened last year and loved their food and beverage offerings, even taking some…… Continue reading Tavalon Tea Trip
Into the Hellmouth at Netherworld
If you have been following me for a while, you would probably know that when someone says hellmouth, my first thoughts are Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And in this case, the correlation is not so thin. Netherworld, a gaming arcade and geek bar in Fortitude Valley, is a great venue that plays host to lots…… Continue reading Into the Hellmouth at Netherworld
Magic at Messina Creative Department
Last month I got to go to foodie heaven at Messina Creative Department. For the month of February, the seven-course degustation experience called Brisbane home and we were lucky enough to grab a spot. Set in a private room with dimmed lighting (great for mood, not for photography!), each booking seats just 12 people. The chef…… Continue reading Magic at Messina Creative Department
The best coffee in the world
Big statement, I know. But hear me out on this one (I think I ask that a lot of you… thanks for being trusting dear reader)! Of course there may be better that I have not tried, but in my travels so far, the best coffee I have had (and my coffee-snob fiance agrees!) was in a…… Continue reading The best coffee in the world
Teaming up like bacon and eggs
There are people in life that you are just meant to meet. Caity (who I have mentioned briefly in a previous blog) runs a great little food guide called Foodramblings. We met professionally but have since become good friends and our love of food, photography and blogging has been like cookies meeting milk – a…… Continue reading Teaming up like bacon and eggs
Golden days
One of my favourite places to shop near my workplace is James Street Market. It has so many delicious, boutique finds that are not in your typical supermarket and are often locally sourced, so you know you are supporting Australian businesses. About a month ago I wandered down to the store with a work friend…… Continue reading Golden days
Why Chermside is making stomachs churn (in a good way!)
So admittedly I’m a bit late to the party, but Westfield Chermside’s newest area opened a few weeks ago and I was lucky enough to help a friend (and fellow blogger) try out one of the many great restaurants, Betty’s Burgers & Concrete Co. Since I was taking photos for her, I thought I might as well take…… Continue reading Why Chermside is making stomachs churn (in a good way!)
Party people and food photos
Last weekend I got to attend a raging party. And by raging, I mean it had some of the best homemade delicacies I’ve enjoyed at a party! One of my good friends was hosting a little house do, just cause, and one of the conditions was to bring food. A few people admittedly did bring…… Continue reading Party people and food photos
