From the photos I’d assumed Semi-Semi was a Korean restaurant. It turns out a Taiwanese owner runs it, though the design still leans Korean fashion. It’s at G4/115 Boundary Street, West End, a small cafe known for stacked toasties and bingsu. I got myself the Spicy Beef Blaze and a pistachio coffee. The staff recommended […]
Mitr Dessert House Reviews – Brisbane’s Thai-Inspired Dessert and Fusion Cafe
Mitr is one of those rare Brisbane CBD places where the food tastes good, the portions are big and the bill doesn’t make you wince, and on a Sunday evening with three adults and three kids we ate until we were stuffed and still paid under $200, I think it was about $173 if I […]
Melbourne Central’s Hello Kitty Café — Turns Out It’s Actually Good
I’d walked past this place probably a dozen times since it opened without going in. Every time I told myself I’d stop by “next time,” which is a lie you tell yourself about the touristy-looking spot in the middle of a shopping centre you’re always rushing through. I’d ordered a couple of the cakes as […]
Brick Valley Yumcha, Glen Waverley — Is the Lego Restaurant Worth the Trip With Kids?
Brick Valley had been open a few weeks before we finally went. The reviews online were already split down the middle, and with two Lego-obsessed kids at home, we were never not going to find out for ourselves. The Lego Theme Isn’t Just for Show We heard it before we saw it properly — both […]
Oden Melbourne Review
We’d scrolled past Oden on Bourke Street more times than we can count before we actually booked a table. Every second Melbourne food account seemed to be standing in front of that steaming pot by July, and every time, the same thought stopped us: oden is street food. It’s the stuff you grab from a […]
Brother Hen Review
In Moonee Ponds, a suburb of Melbourne, their classic big breakfast is exactly what people imagine an Aussie big breakfast to be. On New Year’s Day, when basically the whole world is on holiday, it’s rare to find a hidden gem café still open – Brother Hen. Brother Hen Review What must be mentioned about […]
Yamamoto Udon Reviews
Back in 2024 when I travelled to Japan I tried this wide udon for the first time, it felt really special, didn’t expect I could eat it in Melbourne too. Today after class I went with a friend to a small Japanese shop that only sells udon, didn’t expect there were quite a lot of […]
Hello Auntie Marrickville Reviews
If you’re looking for a gathering spot with great atmosphere, food, creativity, and value for money, nothing beats Hello Auntie. Three people ate until we were absolutely stuffed, and it only came to about $45 per person. Every year truffle season I always look forward to this place. Hello Auntie Marrickville is that kind of […]

Authentic Japanese Grilling Experience at Naru Yakitori
This Japanese yakitori place (Naru Yakitori) that’s been sitting in my saved list for so long, finally made it there. 6–9 dollars per skewer, not too expensive, we basically ordered everything we wanted. Highly recommend sitting at the counter, you can watch the chef grill while eating, the atmosphere is really good. The menu is […]
