HOT – My Thai Kitchen – Shop 18, 36 Baroona Rd, Milton

By CazM ⋅ June 10, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The offspring born of Brisbane’s infamous My Thai (in Auchenflower), My Thai Kitchen is a welcome addition to the Milton and Rosalie areas with their super quick and easy lunch time specials, their agonisingly awesome and extensive dinner menu (for dine in or takeaway) and to top it off….a cooking school! My work buddies and [...]

HOT: Andavanth – 46 Douglas St, Milton

By CazM ⋅ May 25, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

This week sees the return to business for our friends at Andavanth, who were one of the hardest hit Milton based companies in the January floods. With water well and truly over the roof, as well as a couple of random air conditioning units from downstream, it’s been a long road to recovery for owners [...]

HOT: Bunker – 21 Railway Terrace, Milton.

By CazM ⋅ April 21, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

My usual coffee supplier is still re-building after the January floods, so getting that hit first thing in the morning has required some exploration around the Milton area, whilst keeping a wide birth from the Euro cafes on Park Rd that never seem to get it right. Railway Terrace has sprouted a few new additions [...]

HOT: Temple – 21 Park Rd, Milton

By CazM ⋅ November 18, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Historically, for lunch goers chasing Thai in the Milton business precinct, Royal Thai Orchid was has been the default venue. Enter Temple, the latest Thai cuisine conveniently located on Park Rd and the Orchid has some stiff competition. Temple takes up residence in what was the long standing Samsara Indonesian furniture shop in the bustling [...]

NOT: Drift Cafe, Jetty & Events– 330 Coronation Drive, Milton

Oxley’s on the River was a Brisbane icon for as long as I can remember. When I first moved to Brisbane at the ripe old age of 9, all I wanted was to go to dinner with my folks down at the cool pontoon restaurant – something to do with my love of food and [...]

HOT: Kenchington Patisserie & Fine Tea, 12 Park Rd, Milton

By CazM ⋅ June 25, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

I would normally boast to know Park Rd like the back of my hand, after working in very close proximity for the last decade and lunching up there at least once a week. I’m ashamed to admit however that I’ve fallen into a habit of frequenting the same old haunts for too long, and have [...]

NOT: The Char Grill at Caxton Hotel, 38 Caxton St, Petrie Terrace

By CazM ⋅ June 9, 2010 ⋅ 5 comments

Often one of the top picks for Friday lunch for me and the boys in the office (due to geographical convenience and the fact that they sell beer) The Char Grill at Caxton Hotel is a Brisbane icon, particularly around this time of year with State of Origin. On my most recent visit however I [...]

HOT: Bistro Alegria, Shop 11, 20 Park Rd, Milton

By CazM ⋅ March 1, 2010 ⋅ One comment

I’ve never been shy in alluding to the fact that Park Road’s cafes and restaurants are over-rated. Their flare fizzled out with the turn of the new millennium and as a result, I’ve resorted to driving to Rosalie or the City in search of a lunch-time feed, or what’s worse, packing my own lunch from [...]

HOT: Onyx Bar and Restaurant, 1/12 Park Rd, Milton

By CazM ⋅ December 21, 2009 ⋅ 4 comments

The festive season has well and truly kicked in and to be honest I really enjoy the vibe on Park Road at this time of year. Balmy Friday afternoons are none better spent than at the bar of a funky venue that is only a short stroll from the office or the train station. Onyx [...]

NOT: The Patio, The Coro Hotel, 28 McDougall St, Milton

By CazM ⋅ November 10, 2009 ⋅ One comment

McDougall Street Milton is home to some very well known corporate enterprises, whose associates and employees would be chomping at the bit to have a local, stylish establishment to sip coffee in the mornings and beer in the afternoons. On the surface, The Patio at The Coro Hotel looks to provide all that and more [...]
