Trough according to Ambrosia

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.

Lemon Grass Thai Tuggeranong 23 August 2023

I think only four of us, John couldn't make it.

Yes, we ventured as far south as Tugg. This was a very satifying Thai meal, service was reliable, food delicious especially the pork and altogether a repeatable night.

Cafe Viin Pearce 9 August 2023

We were all there, Kim, John, Ron, Karen, Jim, Megan.

The occasion was Megan's birthday, so fancy dinner. We had waited for Cafe Vin to get the escargots off their menu and August was it, so we treated ourselves. It was a perfect evening.

Cafe Vin does the same menu, no choices, each month. We had our own room and there was one, maybe another group in that night. It all felt very special and the food was delicious, couldn't be faulted. I went to another restaurant, Louis, a few weeks later and this was by far the better one, much more interesting and inventive and we felt we had really found our perfect spot.

Unfortunately escargots were back on in September.
