Today my husband and I had an annual leave day and had a few errands to run. We stopped for a bite to eat at Kobe Dining, and OMG, it was so tasty. We both had pork and kimchi, and extremely satisfied with the taste. Mood was great, it was 11am, nice and quiet, reminded of us just being in Thailand, eating at the street markets! Pleased and recommend

This hidden gem called Lantern Lane is located inside Stockland Earlville Shopping Centre Once inside Lantern Lane it takes you into Japan, with lanterns drapped across the roof and shop fronts inspired by this beautiful culture. There are four shops currently open in this laneway and all serve true to there culture cuisine. Which is so delicious and served with love. Eating inside the Lantern Lane takes you away from the busyness of the Shopping Centre. The environment is true to Japanese style and culture. It is a must visit location for food and atmosphere.
