A friend and I went to Canberra to see the 'Masterpieces of Paris' exhibition at the National Gallery of Art.
On my friend's brother and sister-in-law's recommendation we stopped by Cream Cafe & Bar for lunch. I really loved the interior design - you could see much thought was put into the aesthetic. There was an eclectic mix up customers flowing in and out which made interesting people watching. You can find more pics on their website, including the mains which we were suppose to try which we regret not trying.
What seemed like perfect sense at the time to have a light savoury meal instead of filling up on stodgy food before walking around the gallery.....now does not make sense when faced with the prospect of the Blintz (jewish crepes filled with ricotta and sultanas, dusted with cinnamon sugar, finished with a zesty citrus sauce) for lunch or the fact I really wanted to try the Duck Risotto (duck braised in master stock with shallots, chilli, choy sum and shiitake mushroooms).....SIGH......Next time perhaps?!?
