You've got to be careful in saying that the searches decline over time because the scale of the graphs do not represent absolute search volume numbers. The total number of searches performed by Australians on Google is growing - so absolute searches for a product/brand may be growing while their share of the total number of searches is in decline.

A decline in share of total searches (like in the case of "Queensland") is not necessarily a reason to panic given that a huge amount of growth in total search volume in recent years are navigational searches (e.g. users typing in "facebook" to Google rather than www.facebook.com into a browser to navigate to facebook).

Here's a bit more on Sam Doo: http://www.phnomenon.com/in... - now it is looking a bit flashier than my previous pics, but is still in the same place.

Xiang Palace at the Intercontinental does decent dim sum and there's a new joint on Sothearos at the end of the new Korean strip (towards the Russian Embassy) that looks like it is worth a try.

I was never a huge fan of the bee larvae or karaoke, but barbecue is still a highlight. Thanks for the link by the way - Phnomenon is live again for a few short weeks.
