Reviews: I also write about places I eat or buy food - mostly Melbourne, a few around Australia and some in Scotland. I have listed these as 'reviews' but please bear in mind that these posts are often based on one visit and are not intended to be comprehensive. However I try to keep my reflections limited to places I enjoy and would recommend, though there might be an occasional exception.
