    Enjoyed a delicious and special Winter meal today at Pipis Kiosk in their restaurant. Coq au Vin was served with a matching red wine and a complimentary salad for $35. Also enjoyed the starter of a serve of seaweed sourdough with softened brown butter ($7). Service was 5 stars - just the right amount of attentiveness that i prefer when being a solo diner. Can see this place would be a prime place to visit during summer!

    Yet again the Railway did not disappoint! Their steak nights are one of the best. My parents are visiting from overseas and took them to experience. Delicious! The team are also extremely attentive and nothing was too much, thank you again!
