Used to be my favourite Italian restaurant for lunch or dinner, until the long term owner sadly passed. It’s centrally located in town but not as sumptuous as it used to be!

Sightseeing
Beautiful, historic trip. From my personal experience taking the train to Kuranda and the Sky-Rail back down is not only magnificent but the best way to view the whole trip from different perspectives.
