Guzman Y Gomez – My favorite  Mexican restaurant

Guzman Y Gomez

Recently, Guzman Y Gomez has came my favorite  Mexican restaurant. Actually, they are very new to Brisbane. They just opened their branch in Winter Garden, Albert Street in City and my favorite  Mexican restaurant during past two months.  Moreover, a lot of Brisbane people love them too! I saw lot of people lining up in their Albert Street Branch last night!

Barramundi Burritos

Well, they got good Mexican food and unique Mexican drinks which cannot be found in other places, as a result, the people will love them. For myself I love their Barramundi Burritos a lot. The Barramundi Fillet is big and the sauces is so tasty too! I love it, I love it! The price is fair too. That is $10.50.

New Winter Garden

New Food Court at Winter Garden

Last Friday, I went to Winter Garden for my dinner. I found the whole shopping center is refurbished. There are many many new shops. But those shops are not my kind, they are too expensive. I am not keen on them, but I will keen on their new food court. There are some my old favor, such as Hanaichi and some new shop too. I love Mexico  takeaway, Guzman Y Gomez. In additional, the new food court are very comfortable. There is very bright and a lot of space too! Moreover, that is very modern!

Shlix-Fresh Salad

Shlix-Fresh Salad

I ate my lunch in Shlix at least three times per week . Firstly,  I like to eat salad as my lunch, that sounds healthier. Then Shlix sells Salad, their salad is quite large. That is big enough to be lunch. Secondly, their ingredients are quite fresh.  Besides, you can choose the ingredients from 15 types of vegetable such as Cucumber and Sweet Corn. That is very wide range of choices. Lastly, the price is quite fair. For large size(considering as a lunch size salad), you can have 7 ingredients. That is only $8.20.

P.S. Shlix only sells salad and ice-cream, if you want somethings rather than those two, that may be a place for you.

Chocolate Pavilion @ Carindale


Chocolate Pavilion @ Carindale

Today, we went to Chocolate Pavilion at Westfield Carindale. They are in the new section, Glass House.  Moreover, that is very new.

But the most important part is that they have got very special chocolate dishes. The first one is Chocolate Sushi.


Chocolate Sushi

Actually, it only looks like a Sushi. I think that is a kind of dessert. The bottom is made of chocolate. At the bottom, that is made of chocolate. Then it has yogurt rice on the top of itself. Then they have some fruits at the highestmost top level. Well, that is a “Sushi” style dessert. BUT it 100% doesn’t taste like Sushi,Sushi; it tastes more like yogurt rice. By the way, It looks good too! It looks like a rainbow.
The second dish is Chocolate Risotto. I calls it Chocolate Rice whichbecause it has a is vvery rich chocolate taste. It tastes very sweet! Moreover, I recommend you should eat ice cream. This way makes it more tasty! Lastly, it tastes like dessert again!

Dark Chocolate Affogato

Besides of fancy chocolate, their coffee is good too! I had a cup of Dark Chocolate Affogato today.

Inside Chocolate Pavilion @ Carindale

Lastly, that chocolate shop is very comfortable and looks cool! That is a good place for gathering!

I recommend this shop to you; it’s, that is worth to try their fancy chocolate dishes. But I think those dishes are suitable forto a dessert rather than as main courses.

P.S. Those good things cost money, We had two sets of Chocolate Sushi, Chocolate Risotto and four cups of coffee. That cost us around $65.

Brisbane-Good Friday

In Hong Kong which is my home town, the most of people will choose to spend their Easter Holidays at shopping malls.  But that is a bit different in Brisbane. Today is Good Friday. The most of shopping centers are closed. Moreover, I think most of Australian are not very keen to do shopping.  What do they do?

This  morning, I brought my camera to Southbank. I wish to take some good photo and have a fresh air under a such good weather. Wow, that is full of people. I think the most of Brisbane people got a same thought of mine. They plan to spend their Good Friday outdoor too!

Some people sit on the glass to do reading and chatting.

There were some people prefer to be more active. They  spent their afternoon in the inland beach at southbank.

Well, although the most of shopping centers are closed, the weekend market at southbank were opening, there are some people to do shopping.

In addition, there were still plenty of people to do the simplest things, walking at riverside walk.

I like those activities than shopping in a mall. However, I did not do any of those activities. I was walking around Southbank with my camera and took a lot of good photo!
