CINA - Best Chinese Restaurant

Posted 15 June 2009

Respected Herald Sun food critic Stephen Downes recently revealed his best restaurants of the past year, and High Street Armadale’s Cina won the title of Best Chinese restaurant.

Here’s what Stephen had to say: “ Cina offers astonishing value, a near-perfect wine list and the option of BYO. A fairly recent addition to our town’s surfeit of Chinese eats, it specialises in Malaysian and northern Chinese cooking. Scrupulously clean, comfortable and modestly stylish – there is a dimmer and swisher area down the hall beyond the kitchen – it tabled fine, fresh flavours and textures when I visited. I thought an Assam beef curry was spectacularly good, big chunks of high quality steak arriving in a dark juice with an alluring complexity. ” (Herald Sun, Tuesday May 26, 2009)

AXIA MODERN ART – Alexander McKenzie Winter

Posted 13 June 2009

Recent Paintings by Alexander McKenzie are on show at Axia Modern Art between

11 June – 28 June 2009

Alexander McKenzie’s landscapes are as much evocations of mood, weather and the subconscious as they are depictions of actual place. His unique and powerfully innovative visions of lakesides, gardens and sunsets are hauntingly powerful scenes that continue their subtle break away from the more literal representation of landscape, towards a presentation of the imagined.

Alexander McKenzie was born in Sydney in 1971. He studied at the Julian Ashton Art School, Sydney where he received the Inaugural Whiteley Scholarship, the Henry Gibbons Drawing Prize and the Julian Ashton Art School Prize for landscape.

He has been a finalist in several award exhibitions including the Archibald Prize, Art Gallery of NSW, 2007 & 2008; Wynne Prize, Art Gallery of NSW, 2006 & 2007; Glover Prize, Evandale Tasmania, 2006; Tattersalls, Landscape Prize, Brisbane, 2003 & 2006, 1997-99 and the Conrad Jupiters Art Exhibition, Gold Coast, QLD, 1998.

In 1997 he was recipient of the St George Sutherland Leader Biennial Prize and in 1996 he was awarded the Fishers Ghost Drawing Prize at the Campbelltown Bicentennial City Art Gallery. His work is also represented in numerous public, corporate and private collections.
