"Within the four separate spaces—the lounge, mosaic room, the salon and dining rooms— of this industrial-chic restaurant in Hotel Hotel, the Modern Australian plates served are designed for sharing, showcasing local and seasonal produce through each one. Sharing plates such as clams, chorizo, samphire and cider, and pressed ham hock with celeriac, apple and mustard are followed by sweet plates such as poached quince with yogurt sorbet, barberry, rose and pistachio. monsterkitchen.com.au"
"Vegetarians will understand the disappointment when dining out and having limited options to choose from. However, Monster Kitchen and Bar is entirely vegetarian – and extremely delicious at that. In fact, we promise you’ll impress your meat eating friends here with a whole head cauliflower – that actually hits the spot."

"All Alpine ski lodge in decor, Hippo Co is one of city’s leading bars with a commitment to the craft of making a serious drink. There’s a great collection of whiskey and scotches, plus a balcony to take in the scene over Garema Place in Civic. There are plenty of spots for a chat and conversation-starter objects (awhole pack of taxidermic critters, framed vintage prints and retro light fittings, to name a few) about the room if you get stuck for topics."
"This is one of Australia’s longest-running and most sought out nightclub. The Hippo Co boasts a collection of over 200 choices of Whiskey. It is an amazing location to chat, share a couple of drinks and listen to some of the best Jazz music in Australia."

"Once you’ve made your way past the instagrammers and bloggers crowding A.Baker, you’re in a unique venue that deserves praise for its ambitions. Head downstairs for the ‘speakeasy’ bar – a dim and striking escape from the activity above ground, the feature piece a row of amazing old marine lights, found in Jodhpur. It’s place to relax after work, or to wait for your table with some olives and nuts…but with a voyeuristic one-way glass window into the commercial bakery, it’s a fun way to pass the time."
"If you are in search of exciting cocktails, rums, and punches, this is the dance club for you. Here, you get to dance to the hottest and latest Afro-Cuban and Latin beats. This is definitely one of the hippest places to be in on a Sunday night."
"Whisky bars seem to be all the rage at the moment, but Honkytonks does things a little differently – here it’s all about the TEQUILA!. If too many ‘lip, sip, sucks’ have put you off it for life, I urge you to try again…this is a different experience entirely. Combined with some pretty amazing Mexican food, moreish Sangria, and a ‘cantina’-like atmosphere, the incense-filled interior of Honkytonks is great for a chilled after work drink, or something a little noisier."
"Honkytonks specializes in Mexican and American fusion cuisine. It is one of the hip places in town to be at. It operates on all days (except Sunday and Monday)."

"Ciao Cafe & Cakes Braddon is located at the heart of Canberra. It is a well-loved locally owned café and bakery. They are famous for their authentic coffee and baked goods."
"Coffee Lab is a beloved place for coffee in Canberra, thanks to its expert brews and super friendly baristas. As for where the ‘lab’ part comes into play?. Grab a quick brew to go or sit down and ask one of their staff about what experiments are happening at the moment."
"You will find mouth-watering and delectable dishes that are inspired by Northern Chinese cuisine. This family-owned business is truly passionate when it comes to serving the best Chinese cuisine in the whole of NSW. On top of that, their high-quality dishes come at surprisingly affordable prices."

"Sammy’s Kitchen is a great place where you can satisfy your cravings for your favourite Chinese and Malaysian cuisine. If you haven’t visited this place yet, you better try their famous shantung chicken and laksa dishes. Moreover, it is conveniently located in Canberra Centre."
"Many think a speakeasy should be underground, but the emphasis is on ‘hidden’ – in this case, Lucky’s is at street level, but you do have to find it via a secret entrance at the back of the hotel’s Barber Shop or a discreetly lit entrance from outside. Those readers of a certain ‘vintage’ may remember the space as its previous incarnation as‘Bobby McGee’s’ but let me tell you, there’s no ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ being played here – it’s all class with a curated DJ set adding atmosphere. It’s sizeable, the space feels sophisticated and intimate, with booths providing privacy."

Decked out with original pieces from a Lima-based artist, the kitchen serves amazing blends of the two cuisines’ flavours and techniques with their acevichado maki rolls, ceviche, lamb cutlets with quinoa and miso, and many more delicious, inventive dishes."
"INKA, a blend of Japanese/Peruvian fusion, is one of the newest kids on the block. In the 1900s when the Japanese migrated to Peru, the cultures came together and birthed a new cuisine: Nikkei. INKA encompasses just that within the walls of its stunning restaurant."
"When two cultures collide…magic happens at Canberra’s first Nikkei restaurant Inka on Bunda Street. Fusing Japanese and Peruvian cuisine, Inka is home to a functions mezzanine, sushi bar and restauran..."
