Photown – a hidden gem in Alexandria


I realised recently that I hadn’t blogged for over a year! My excuse is that I had been planning my wedding for over a year, which took over my life for the most part!

Sushi Masa Japanese Restaurant


This place has definitely earned it’s 8.4 rating on Eatability, there’s no doubt about that. I have been here two times, my last visit was last Friday 13/5 and may I just say that it’s quickly become one of my favorite places for Japanese food. The food is simple, fresh and tasty, served up by friendly efficient waitstaff. Best of all the prices are very … Continue reading Sushi Masa Japanese Restaurant
