Fick Brewing | Northgate

Fick Brewing Craft Beer Brisbane Review
European street food and Belgium beer aren’t normally associated with Brisbane’s industrial suburb of Northgate, but thanks to the opening of Fick Brewing, Northgate may just be the new Neudorf Valley. 

With brewing taking place onsite in the sheltered beer garden, Fick is small enough to bring experimental beers to life, but big enough to draw a steady crew of office lunch-seekers and weekend locals. A games and toys section also ensures that kids, both young and old, have activities to carry them through the afternoon. 

So how did a piece of Brussels end up in Brisbane’s inner-north?

OneHome Coffee | Brisbane

Brisbane onehome coffee buy coffee tiago cruz mateus cruz
Working as a civil engineer in Brazil seems a far cry from distributing coffee in Brisbane. Tiago Cruz agrees, taking a chance not only at a whole new country, but at a whole new lifestyle.

OneHome Coffee is the brainchild of Brazilian-born Tiago and his brother Mateus, who both saw an opportunity to break into the home-delivered coffee scene in Australia. An opportunity that not even Covid-19 could stop.

How did this idea launch from dream pipe to reality in not only a brand new country, but at an unusual point in history?

It's Mirchi Healthy Indian | Paddington

A curry and a beer is synonymous with a good night, but not so much with squeezing into a pair of skinny jeans the next day. 

Enter It's Mirchi Healthy Indian in the heartland of Brisbane's funky Paddington scene. This restaurant caters to the health conscious, whatever than means for you. Low-carb, low-sugar, vegan, dairy-free, vegetarian, nut-free and organic options are all available. These guys can omit anything. 

But don't fret if you've accepted elastic waistbands as a wardrobe staple, regular old mango chicken and garlic naan remains on the menu.

So has tweaking the tandoori dulled the dhal in any way at all? Lets find out.

Harvest | Newrybar

Harvest Newrybar Byron Bay Review
Australian dining traditionally evokes images of charred sausages on questionably blackened barbeque grills, buckets of prawns, and fingers sticky with mango juice.

​While there’s nothing wrong with each of these gourmet experiences, there is also a more nuanced way to appreciate Australiana on a dish- by making the most of native ingredients that otherwise grow, bloom and are forgotten on the vine. 

Harvest at Newrybar has taken the second approach to Australian dining, creating an ever-changing menu that makes the most of its own native garden, and other produce local to the region. Where exactly is the region you may well wonder? The tiny town of Newrybar is a 15 minute drive from Byron Bay, so while dining here you are in basically sniffing distance of a Hemsworth. 

Let’s take a stroll through the wilderness to find out what could end up on your plate when you venture out this way.

Crock Pot Express Crock Multi-Cooker Review

crock pot express multi cooker recipe review
For someone who enjoys creating things in the kitchen, I don’t have an array of fancy gadgets. Three pots, a couple of fry pans and a whisk seems to have done me fine so far. 

When I had the chance to review the new multi-cooker from Crockpot, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. While I’ve heard from people who rave about one-button cooking, the luddite in me still seemingly hasn’t progressed far from the stove. 

The Crock-Pot Express Crock Multi Cooker has an individual sauté button, stew button and there’s even a dessert button. That’s my kind of button . 

How did I go with unleashing a new piece of technology in the kitchen? Read on to find out.

Allium | New Farm

Allium Brisbane degustation dinner review
Degustation dinners are usually a fancy affair.

A candelabra would not be entirely out of place in the middle of a linen-decked table, as a black and white cuff artfully arranges a diminutive plate of food at a 45 degree angle to it.

At New Farm’s Allium though, there is not one white tablecloth in sight leaving the food to stand on its merit alone.

So how does the dressed-down degustation experience compare to its starched-up counterparts?

Let’s take a look.

Fox and Hounds British Pub Mount Tamborine Review Gold Coast Hinterland
​Where can you find Yorkshire pudding, a Tardis, a pint of London Pride, the Queen and a couple of corgis? 

If you said Mt Tamborine, you’d be right. 

The Fox and Hounds Country Inn is a British pub that was dismantled bit-by-bit from Tunbridge Wells, and rebuilt bit-by-bit in the Gold Coast Hinterland. 

It’s not a british-theme pub; it’s a right old British pub. 

But does it hold a candle to The Three-Legged Mare, or The Bull and Spectacles back in Blighty?

Let’s find out.

DA'Burger | Ascot

Best burgers Brisbane Da'Burger Review
There’s something ridiculously satisfying about burgers and craft beer.

And also cutting off rogue threads on the shirt you’re currently wearing, but we’ll stick to the burgers and beer for now.

It’s strange to call DA’Burger the new kid on the block seeing as it has become something of a New Farm institution for the last five years.

​For cutlery-haters on the northside though, DA’Burger has just opened up a new restaurant in Ascot, bringing with it an upgraded menu that includes house-smoked wings. Winner, winner.

So has the new DA’Burger taken off in full flight compared to the old? Let’s find out.
