    I have to admit it took 5 minutes to actually find Chases Kitchen, it was kinda low key, there was…read moreno logo or anything big but we found it in the end. In the end we found a table and the waiter came straight away, he was very friendly and didn't mind that my mum didn't want dry fruit in her fruit salad. After a small chat the food came in, we were both surprised how quickly it was. I ordered the Boston Burger which was amazing and it came with plenty of chips and it filled me up really easily. The bread is really soft and the chips were very tasty! My mum enjoyed her fruit salad and was very happy with the restaurant (which can be very difficult). All in all I would 100% recommend going to this place, with friendly staff and amazing food what else is there to want?

    If you come here hungry, get the Boston Burger! Huge! It actually comes with a pinch of Mexico on…read moreit with it's deliciously hot jalapeno mayo! Hot Stuff! The bread is specially soft and they come with thin crunchy fries. If you don't have much time on lunch break (like myself), called them to order in advance and their friendly staff will prepare a special table for you and everything. Looking for brekkie? They've got 'em all. I usually randomly ask them to prepare me some scrambled eggs on toast with mushrooms, tomato and spinach. The result is better than expected. Try their Benedict eggs as well. All worth it. Lovely and friendly staff! Nice background music!

    Sure, this place was nice, but the thing that really put me off was the exceeding strong tea that…read morethey served here. Actually, that tea was honestly pretty bad, and not only that, it was quite pricey as well. Though while this place did look nice, and had a nice, quiet, atmosphere about it, the tea really makes me not want to return.

    The Duchess! I have often heard raving reviews of this place but when I went last time, 2 or 3…read moreyears ago I didn't really see the attraction. Perhaps it's the fact that you have to drive to whoop whoop... Perhaps it's the fact that after driving to whoop whoop you still have to wait ages, but the Duchess did not impress me then. Fast forward to today, I had to go to the Scienceworks and it's in Spotswood, so I decided to give The Duchess another go. Now it's obviously a weekday plus it's probably just after lunch hr so it's less busy. They were able to accommodate two prams and was super friendly and efficient about it which is a big tick for me at this point in my life! Food ordering is a bit slow to be honest. We ordered our drinks and waited and waited and no one came to take our order! We finally had to flag someone down and THEN they told us there are specials! Not sure if they just didn't want to overwhelm us and let us settle down but I felt the service need to be a bit more efficient. Anyway so I ordered the special which is the soft shell crab w pork belly on a brioche. It was amazing!! They managed to cut the fattiness of this whole combo with fresh coriander and zesty mayo. I am not a fan of Scienceworks but I will come back for The Duchess!
