Hi Holly

While in Cairns there is one restaurant that is a must stop dining experience;
the chef is rated in the top 26 in Australia; the cuisine is French with a subtle
Japanese influence (I used to work with the chef before he moved to Cairns)
and any dinner (or lunch) you have there is 'guaranteed' to be one highlight
of your trip 'Down Under'. Check out the M.Yogo web site at the url here :thumbsup:


I was flown to Cairns from the Gold Coast back when they opened up there
in December 2005 to do the wine list for them; follow the links here to see if
you recognise any of the wines. Please direct any querries to my work addy;

p.s. Remember that Melbourne & Sydney are on 'daylight saving time'; Cairns
is along with the rest of Queensland not, and one hour behind NSW & VIC ;-)

Peace

Aaron

I wish I could travel like you.  That'd be kickass.  I don't really have anything to contribute to this thread, but have fun!

Holly, when are you going to be in Sydney?
I can meet you if you like! :-)
i'm going away from the 27th Dec to the 2nd Jan :-)
But could happily show you around on the weekend after :-)
Could even book you in for a surf lesson at Bondi beach if you want ;-)

Thanks for the advice! Sorry... I forgot to check this again recently! We went to Melbourne and Sydney and it was wonderful!! This might be my favorite country I've been too! We just got to Cairns a bit ago! I think we're trying that M.Yogo restaurant! Thanks for the recommendation! :)

I ate there and it was good! It actually ended up being like 50 feet from where we were staying!

Point Complex. Please feel free to share any pictures you have of the nite!
