Date: September 26th, 2006 | No Comments Food, among other things, in Australia is fairly expensive. One easy source of nosh that is available in most parts of Australia is Cheap Sushi!

Darwin- Restaurant Review: Roma Bar
Date: September 24th, 2006 | No Comments One for the girls and the arts community- seriously though- this modern place would appeal to most serving brekkie and lunch there are community events posters all over the walls and windows.

Darwin- Mindil Beach Night Markets
Date: September 19th, 2006 | No CommentsGlorious from the first to the last second, the sunsets in Darwin are almost a religion all of their own.

Darwin- Cavenagh Street Attractions
Date: September 24th, 2006 | No CommentsCavenagh Street is two over from the Backpacker hangout/Entertainment district of Mitchell Street. Watch out for… or… check out the small “adult entertainment” district plunked right between the two (depending on your preference).

Darwin- Restaurant Review: Relish
Date: September 24th, 2006 | No Comments An awesome kitchy litte café reminiscent of Santa Fe. There are wood framed ceiling hangings, dirt red walls, local art, and an eclectic selection of collectibles including an R2D2, mini deer head, dash board, and gold high-heels all hanging from the menu boards.
