(to view all pictures in this post, click on the title above) Ever noticed how sometimes, the side-attraction is better than the main event? Movie previews, for instance; they’re always entertaining, sometimes even better than the damn movie. Superhero sidekicks are another; they’re alwa[...]

Il Centro
(to view all pictures in this post, click on the title above) There are certain life changing experiences that we all encounter. It’s often a fairly typical list: your first job; your first home; travelling the world; having a child; falling in love. These are all amazing things that surely im[...]

Jeremy’s
I am a major procrastinator. I always put off things like cleaning my room, because I’d rather 1) pick all the raisins out of the muesli and eat them, 2) lie on my bed and read six month old issues of NW that I’ve borrowed from the library, and 3) inspect my head in the [...][...]

Ceylon Inn Review
Despite my writing-related education and job, sometimes I really muck up language. Only a few years ago I said “grand prix” phonetically, much to the ridicule and peals of laughter from my mother. I can now add Ceylon Inn to my list of errors – but only in terms of pronunciation. D[...]

Southern Spice
Anything south of Woolloongabba scares me. The southside has lovely suburbs, don’t get me wrong, but I’m a westside gurrrl – it’s embarrassing but I don’t venture to that side of town often. When Southern Spice invited me to try their family-run Indian Restaurant at Mt [...]

Salt Review
Hello good people. This week’s guest review comes from a lass called Cass. This one lives dangerously – she orders her coffee in bowls and eats pizza for breakfast. Read about her shenanigans at Salt, in Rosalie. Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day and I can say that Salt is one of[...]

Quickbites: Mother’s Day 2010
My mother is the bomb. ‘Momma T’, as she is known, is someone I admire (she went to uni on a dope scholarship in a time when the ladies weren’t encouraged to seek careers), envy (she eats double what I do, yet I am double her size), and laugh at (“I want to…dance! I w[...]
Hanabishi Review
(To view all pictures in this post, click on the title above) A dear friend of mine is utterly obsessed with pilots. No trip to the airport is complete without her feverishly clutching at your arm, loudly whispering, “Look! There’s another one! Another pilot! DO YOU SEE? DO YOU SEE THE P[...]

Cloudland Review
I am such a swinger. Recently I tossed the keys to EDB into the proverbial bowl, and fished out Gina’s. So we did it. We swapped. We had our ways with eachother’s sites, and then we swapped back. I feel a little dirty, but more so, I feel very envious of the meal Gina enjoyed [...][...]
Spotlight: Tognini’s Spring Hill Re-Opening
Man, I love a good deli. There’s something about a huge, viewable range of fresh produce, cheeses, meats, and antipasti that just excites me. Perhaps I was meant to be born an elegant, sexy gal from Perugia, and not a bumbling, is-that-really-another-food-stain-on-my-shirt chick from Canada. [...]
