I Adore the Cafes at Cluny Court
I only recently discovered that the new Botanic Gardens entrance is much nearer to Cluny Court than the Botanic Gardens Visitor’s Centre Cafe and the Cafes here are much nicer too. I would come again to Gastronomia Da Paolo and … Continue reading

Purvis Street: Eateries & Architecture
Lots of lovely old architecture at Purvis Street. I’ve recently begun to appreciate what was the norm during my childhood and a bit more rare these days. Features like old signboards and iron accordian like grill gates. I really must … Continue reading
