BEST PLACES IN BRISBANE (IMHO)

OMG - BRISBANE GETS Trendy and people from all over the world coming here to join the scene ... hard to believe but true.

Here are some places I go to. Bear in mind, I've not been that active in the last few years, But, here we go in no order:
  1. Cloudland in the Valley (never been there but **LOOKS GREAT**) https://www.cloudland.tv/
  2. Miss Demeanour bar Rowe's lane. Seems to be a legal hangout but $5 beers/sparkling wine and kick-arse chips with aioli $9 does it for me https://www.discoverbne.com.au/home/food-drink/miss-demeanour-brisbane-rowes-lane
  3. Darra CementoCo bowls club after 5pm Friday. This one is for the guys as they have a topless raffle. Membership is $2; beer $4.50; spirits $4.70 ( yes, it seems that asking nicely gets you a better price,).  Food is very good and same or better than the local hotels like Jindalee and monier road. Steak, parmy $14.95 and cooked to perfection . You can even do barefoot bowls if you really want to - it's a great business function or team builder event.
  4. BEST CHINESE / MALAYSIAN - this is a tie between Stir-fry Cafe (behind the pool in loranah Street jindalee) and Good Taste Chinese (in shops next to 7-11). Stir fry has cheap lunch menu but dinner getting expensive as large Chinese groups love it. Goof taste is very close - we could walk there but usually get take away. Usually no issues eating in and same price as takeaway.
  5. Fish & chips - next to stir fry Cafe jindalee or next to good taste Chinese.
  6. Vietnamese - lunch has to be Than Than in inala. Dinner has to be ky Young in Darra opposite QR car park.
  7. YIM THAI wins easily for classic Thai food in Middle Park.

  The debate rages on between those who love petrol cars and those liking full electric with the fence-sitters option for hybrid. But, do we...
