HOT: FAB fish and burger grill – The Barracks, Petrie Tce, Brisbane

By CazM ⋅ August 17, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

I’m a huge fan of tight-arse Tuesdays – 2 for 1 anything will get me every time and MM and I embrace it in a big way. We went tight-arse crazy recently up at The Barracks – cashing in on a 2 for 1 movie ticket, 2 for 1 drinks and to my delight, we [...]

HOT: Mints Vietnamese & Asian Cuisine, 4/21 Nash St, Rosalie

By CazM ⋅ August 10, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

I was tempted to keep this short and sweet with just a HOT….and leave it at that. No wordiness or imagery, just pictures; after all I don’t know if my words can do this place justice. In the spirit of blogging however, I’ve used both wordiness and pictures to best portray how good this place [...]

HOT: Capri Café Bar – Shop 18, The Emporium, 1000 Ann St, Fortitude Valley.

By CazM ⋅ August 3, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

I have a bit of a love affair with The Emporium precinct, so in an effort to impress my visiting interstate colleagues recently I insisted we dine at Capri Café Bar which holds some fond memories for me, as I spent a lot of time dining there when I lived nearby in Newstead. From what [...]

HOT: Zenbar, Post Office Square, Brisbane CBD

By CazM ⋅ July 27, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Zenbar is nothing new to the corporate types around town, but for those not so familiar with some of the dining experiences on offer right in the heart of the CBD, you might be interested to read on. Zenbar is a modern Australian restaurant with Asian influenced cuisine and as long as I’ve known it, [...]

NOT: Earth ‘n’ Sea Amazing Pizza & Pasta, 142 Oxford St Bulimba

By CazM ⋅ July 20, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

MM and I were on the hunt for a quick and relatively cheap feed before catching a movie recently, so instead of settling at one of the fancy cafes on Oxford St, we headed to Earth ‘n’ Sea for what we anticipated would be a cheap, hearty meal that we could woof down and then [...]

HOT: Bow Thai Restaurant, Shop 14, Cathedral Place, Wickham St, Fortitude Valley.

By CazM ⋅ July 14, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

A friend recently asked me where they could find a decent Thai restaurant in the Valley, and to their surprise (and mine), I had nothing. How could someone who spends so much time eating and drinking their way around the CBD and immediate surrounds not be able to nominate a decent Thai place? So (with [...]

HOT: My Thai, 113 Haig Rd, Auchenflower

By CazM ⋅ May 21, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

With a Thai restaurant on pretty much every corner in Brisbane these days it’s never hard to kill that craving for a red curry or some fish cakes – but in my humble opinion, the odds of finding one that does them right, are pretty slim. I was tasked with organizing a venue for a [...]

HOT: West End Garden, 190 Melbourne St, South Brisbane

By CazM ⋅ May 11, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Past experience has taught me that Chinese/Vietnamese venues can be synonymous with cheap and nasty – which isn’t a problem if cheap and nasty is what you’re after to fill your belly. One little gem of the Chinese/Vietnamese variety that has time and time again proven itself is West End Garden and it is absolutely, one hundred [...]

HOT: Vespa Pizza, 148 Merthyr Rd, New Farm

By CazM ⋅ April 30, 2010 ⋅ 5 comments

The hunt for the perfect, tell-your-mates-about-it wood fired pizza continues….only this time I had 7 friends in tow, so I could sample various offerings on the menu over a few glasses of red, yum! Vespa Pizza is one of those pokey little places I’ve always wanted to go to, but never have for some stupid [...]

HOT: Rangla Punjab Indian Restaurant, 938 Brunswick Street, New Farm

By Jetsetting Joyce ⋅ April 2, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

Today we have another guest post from Jetsetting Mum as she makes her way through the Indian restaurants in her neighbourhood… On my latest count, in the suburbs of Fortitude Valley and New Farm, there are five Indian eateries along Brunswick Street alone (the 3 to 4 km strip from Ann Street to the New [...]
