In fact, I don't have a... Ali Baba Review

<body>
<p><font face='Times New Roman' size='4'>In fact, I don't have a favourite restaurant in Canberra. First of all, I stayed at my <b>best friends house</b> and ate sometimes at <b>home</b> but also <b>frequently</b> in one of the several <b>sport clubs</b> Canberra counts. Those clubs offer <b>good food</b> for a <b>small price</b> and you can fill in your evening there with drinks, which are reasonably priced. They make their big money with the large number of <b>poker machines</b> they offer. But alas, you have to be an inhabited of Canberra to get a membership, however some do interstate or international visitors to use their facilities. I was able to get in because my friend is a member and can invite people as well. But Canberra offers also very good restaurants. The city is right up there with Sydney and Melbourne in terms of the number of restaurants per head of population. In Canberra, you'll find this reflected in the range of restaurants available: <b>Turkish</b>, <b>Mexican</b>, <b>Thai</b>, <b>Chinese</b>, <b>Italian</b>, <b>Greek</b> and <b>Vietnamese</b>... we could go on and on. What links all these cuisines together is their access to <b>fresh local ingredients</b>. Meat is high quality and relatively inexpensive. Seafood is flown in from the nearby coasts. Fresh vegetables are readily available. I have tried several restaurants in Canberra and all I can say is that they are excellent, and most of the time even betters then the ones in Melbourne. There the taste of all of us is very different you better check out this <b><a href='http://canberra.citysearch.com.au/Canberra/Food_Wine/Restaurants/' target = new> web page</a></b> first to make a decision. <b>For the fast food junkies.</b> Yes, you'll find <b>McDonalds</b>, <b>KFC</b>, <b>Pizza Hut</b> and the like, with the same reliable recipes they have everywhere else in the world. But take my word; <b>the best fast food restaurant is Ali Ba Ba</b> (<font color='#0000FF'>see
picture</font>) on the corner of <b>Bunda Street</b>.</font></p>
