We are a group of Canberrans who have been eating out together for more than 20 years at mainly Asian restaurants, sometimes more upmarket places. The retirees amongst us also have a regular morning coffee group. This blog is primarily a record of where we went, what we ate and what we liked and didn't like. It's not intended to be an extensive and insightful review of each restaurant and each dish, hence comments are often limited to expressions such as "yum", which says it all for us.

Kinh Do Macquarie - 2 November 2022
I think everyone was there. A great meal was had by all, very much enjoyed, Kinh Do was up to its usual standard.

China Tea House Erindale 19 October 2022
Always very reliable here, which is why it was crowded when we arrived. Plus noisy but by the time we finished we were the last ones there so not so bad.
The duck pancakes were disappointing, basically minced duck with no crisp skin, no veges and the pancakes fell apart. Remind us not to order them next time.
The beef and scallop hot pot got the thumbs up. There was some discussion/disagreement about the tenderness of the beef as it had been tenderised with bicarb. Still nice though.
Salt and pepper crab perfect.
Prawns and broccoli nice and plain, a contrast to the rich food.
Eggplant was lovely, a great flavour.
Pork dish was oh yeah, lovely.
We thought to kick on at Goodberry's but when we got there it was crowded with young people so we gave up.
Saigon Restaurant Pearce 5 October 2022
Everyone was there. Meal was lovely as always and the restaurant not too crowded so we could all hear. A sad night though as Kim's father was not very well.
