Oxford Hotel

Oxford Hotel, Leederville

The Oxford Hotel in Leederville is not a bad place for a drink since it has spruced itself up in recent years. We went on a Tuesday night to take advantage of the kid friendly dining. On every Tuesday night they have someone there (Cater 4 Kids) from 5.30pm – 8.30pm at The Brickworks Cafe in the Beer Garden, who can entertain the children while you enjoy your meal. In theory it sounds good, but you will still have to deal with your kids when they bored or need something to eat. As usual you will pay restaurant prices for pub service. The food was not anything special, and especially the famed burnt fig ice cream was very disappointing.

Coliseum Cafe Review

Coliseum Café and Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The Coliseum Café and Hotel is a  historical landmark in Kuala Lumpur. We went for a evening drink and sat beneath the fans on a balmy night and felt like we had been transported back in time. It is well worth a visit to experience what Kuala Lumpur may have been like when the British colonial days. There was plenty of action in the cafe part so we assume that the food is OK too.
