The Victoria Room - guest post over at Urban Style Vibes..

Today you will find me guest-posting over at 'Urban Style Vibes'
whilst the lovely blog author herself is travelling in Far East Asia.


Please pop across to read all about one of my favourite restaurants - The Victoria Room.

I urge anyone who travels to Sydney to book a table at this brilliant restaurant - but do so
well in time as the tables are popular and you may miss out.  If you don't fancy dinner,
then go there for nibbles & drinks or for high tea...and perhaps also an astrology reading..


The Victoria Rooms recently launched a 'High Tea' book, and I had the pleasure of playing
a key part in the birth of this splendid literary feast. Will post more about this here very soon...

Don't forget to wish Lise a (belated) happy birthday when you visit..

    Jane - hello and welcome here. I LOVED your post over at Lise's the other day. Such a brilliant take on Australian design! Thank you for becoming a follower - I look forward getting to know you better. x

    Mariska - I agree. I think High Tea is the 'new brunch'! :)

    Anna - thank you lovely. So nice that you popped in to say hi. I hope to see you more often. Loving the pictures in your recent posts. x

    Lisa - you're welcome sweetie. Hope you are not too jet lagged.. It's one long flight back to Europe isn' it!? I can't wait to read all about your trip. x

    Lumo - yes, do put this on your list for when you are here. I'll post some more restaurants for you and also continue the Woollahra tour soon. xx

    Miss Design Esquire - Yes it is a fantastic place. Just enough of BoHo glam mixed with urban sleek, and the food is fantastic!

    Caroline - Thank you - yes the book is a real treat. Was so much fun working on it. Will post the full story soon.
    Both kids are better now thanks. I am battling on though.. A great excuse to lounge around at home and catch up on all the lovely blogs.. :)

    Nuit - Thanks sweetie. I love this place! x

    Cath - Sorry my dear. You'll just have to come back!! :) When you do we'll have high tea at the VR!!

    xx Charlotta

    High tea sounds just perfect (the astrology reading could be quite fun too!) This would be perfect for a girls weekend! (wish I were closer to Sydney...)

    Åh vad roligt med boken! Det måste du berätta mer om! Restaurangen ser verkligen härlig och lyxig ut. Någon gång ska jag väl få komma till Sidney jag också - då ska jag besöka den :)
