When HerCanberra Associate Editor Emma Macdonald declares she’s ‘Never tasted better’ you know we’re talking about something special. Italian and Sons in Braddon has long been a favourite for Canberrans seeking authentic Italian cuisine, and their tiramisu stands as a testament to their commitment to excellence. It strikes that perfect balance between rich indulgence and airy lightness. And you can get it in take-away form at the Ainslie IGA for cravings which strike at odd hours.
