Story Bridge

Story Bridge

The story bridge is the one of famous tourist attractions. “Story” Bridge? Any stories behind that. Actually, I don’t know there is any stories behind that. According to Wikipedia , the bridge is named for John Douglas Story. But there are somethings special. This bridge is a little brother of Sydney Harbour Bridge. Both are design by John Bradfield. Moreover, both are a huge steel structure! I like that, it looks cool! In addition, the river view in there is very pretty too!

Pancakes At The Manor

Pancakes At The Manor

Pancakes At The Manor has been opened in Garden City for about two to three months, because I had to travel oversea last month. That is very busy. I had no spare time to try this restaurant at all. Moreover, their dinner set is very expensive, that is more than twenty dollars!  Thus, I am not very keen to go there.

But last week, I found there is a special lunch set. That is only $13 and extra $1.5 for a coffee. That is more reasonable and attractive too! Thus, I decided to have a lunch in there.

In fact, Pancakes At The Manor there has other branches, I had lunch and dinner in their City branch several times. However, Garden City branch is more comfortable than their City Branch. The seats in there is more spacey too! For the atmosphere only, I choose to Garden City Branch.

Chicken and Mushroom Crepe

Chicken and Mushroom Crepe

For  the food, I ordered chicken and mushroom crepe lunch set.  That is similar with the one I had in City branch, but  Therefore,  the crepe of City branch is better.

Hot Cakes with Icecream

Hot Cakes with Icecream

My package also includes a dessert, hotcakes with ice cream. Some freezing ice cream are added on top of very warm hot cakes. That is very tasty. The taste is a mixture of cold and warm, very interesting….. That seems to much better than the City branch.

This lunch is really tasty. I was very full too!

The concept of 10 Minutes Hair Cut comes from Japan.   This targets the customers who do not want a fantasy hair style, just want a nice and clean hair cut. I tired this kind of hair salon in Hong Kong. I like it. I just want a quick hair cut.

Today, I found there is this kind of hair salon in Sunnybank Plaza. This opens at the opposite side of Post Office. I will try it later. Well, I wish to try it today, but my hair is still short. I will see whether that is as good as the one in Hong Kong.

IKEA Dinner

Ikea Chicken & Chips

Ikea Chicken & Chips

I like to go to IKEA Dinner on Friday, because there is $2 Fish & Chips on every Friday.  But last Friday, I went to there again. I found this special is gone!  Well, IKEA always has good deals on Friday dinner. There is a new offer. Chicken & Chips is for $4.50. There is two chicken breast fillets. If you are a member of IKEA Family, we will get a free coffee! That is still a very good deal, I will go to there for dinner again!

Brisbane River

Brisbane River

I think most cities built around water, either it is an ocean or a river. Our Brisbane City is around a river. The photo shows above is our Brisbane river. Though it doesn’t smell very nice. Queen Eiizabeth just paid a visit and the scene is great. At the city side around the river, there are some beautiful high-rise buildings.
