It is a barge berthed at a fixed pier at Southbank, with an upper deck and a lower deck that lies very close to the water surface. My wife and I found a spot away from other customers on the lower deck to enjoy our meal. 第一次是3月16日，新河上餐廳Yarra Botanica開張之日。餐廳其實是艘舫，固定地停泊在河的南岸Southbank，舫分兩層，下層貼近水面，我和太太就在面對河中心和市區的一側找個遠離其他顧客的地方坐下用餐。...
