We're talking fish & chips on a bun instead of with chips. Really good. Fishburger at King's Park At King's Park we went into the Botanical Gardens and saw many strange plants, some of which aren't eucalyptus. Australia, like every continent in the world, has flowering plants; but it seems as though many of them haven't yet invented flower petals. Eucalyptus rhodantha Adenanthos sericeus (very fuzzy) Grevillea bipinna...
