Chocolate Cafe is getting popular in Brisbane. The most major shopping centers have at least one Chocolate Cafe. Recently, I found there is a new rival of Chocolate Cafe in Brisbane.They have some branches in the shopping centers. I tried their branch in Kawana shopping center in Sunshine Coast. The hot chocolate is quite tasty, the chocolate is not too strong. Moreover, the atmosphere is quite cheerful. The cafe is not too busy. I and my frined had afternoon tea in there for two hours. That was a comfortable experience. I love it.

In the second floor of the new wing of Garden City, just outside Myer entrance, there is a new café, Le Bon Choix. Their shopfront is quite pretty, so we always want to try.
At earlier of this month, my wife and I got a chance to have a morning tea in there, bought two cups of coffee and two cakes. They tasted good and looke very beautiful, especially that piece of chocolate cake.
Chocolate surface is very fragrant, and I love the soft texture inside. It has a mini macarons on top. It looks really very special and delicate.
Everything is good, but the price is not cheap, we spent more than $ 20 on that morning tea.

Some friends recommended sushi edo to me before. However,they have any branches in our southside of Brisbane. They only have branches in CBD, Newmarket and Nundah. Recently, they opened a new branch in Sunnybank Plaza.
Yesterday, I and my wife went to there for Lunch. The atmosphere is very present. The seats are very comfortable and the theme are very warm. Moreover, the staff are nice and friendly!
Another advantage is their iPad Ordering system. The user interface is very easy to use. It has a big picture of every item. We need to click the pictures to order. In addition, it supports multi-languages, such as chinese and english. The system can call the staff and checking order details, even you can join their member club from this system.
Back to the main topic, their food, there are various choices, including Nigiri, Aburi (Seared Sushi),hand rolls, ramen and curry rice, even green tea ice cream.
For price, that is very reasonable too. All sushi are priced $3.50, unless they are listed at a different price. Even Sea urchin sushi is $3.50.
Thus, at the end, we had ten dishes of sushi and two green tea. That was $38. That is very reasonable. Well, the good price is not the most important, the taste is more important. We think the sushi tastes good! Definitely, we will come again!
Last week, I had a new kind of Bun in Parkland restaurant. They were quite tasty. Outside looks like a spanish style bun, inside has BBQ pork. I love it, you can try it when you go to Parkland for a yum cha.

Last week, I was in City for work. Previously, I heard about Mr. Curry has a deal value. I wish to try that for long time. Well, that was a good opportunity to do that.
This special is only valid until noon every day. The Chicken Katsu Curry costs only $5 before 12 pm! I was in there at 11.50 am. That was close and I found there were a few people lining up! Luckily, the staff made that curry rice in a very effective manner, like a factory line! I only waited less than 5 minutes, then I had this lunch box.
For $5 only, that was a good deal. The lunch box had some salad, rice and some deep fry chicken pieces. I only found the sauces was not enough. Apart from that, I cannot complain anything at all! The size of lunch box was not too small at all, that was enough for me as a lunch!
Gong Cha(貢茶) is a famous Taiwanese Style Milk Tea Bar in Hong Kong and Taiwan. When I was in Hong Kong, I came there for drinking milk tea a number of times.
Last year, they opened a branch in Brisbane too! Finally, I got a chance for trying them in Brisbane last week. I ordered Fresh Milk Tea with Red bean and Pudding. This is their signature drink! That was sweet and tasty. The taste of Red Beans with Milk tea is quite unique. I love it. I recommended this drink. The price is quite fair too, $4.5 for regular and extra 50 cents to upgrade to large size. At the end, I paid extra 50 cents for upgrade. Adding 50 cents to large size, that sounds a better deal!
If you go to 8 Street food court, I recommend you to try Gong Cha

I and my wife quite like Harbour Town, there are a lot of factory outlets. We went to there for shopping every few months.
Last Saturday, we went to there again. After shopping for a while, I felt hungry and tired. I really needed a place to sit down and have a lunch. The best place for those purpose is Fasta Pasta which is a very comfortable dine-in restaurant.
Moreover, there are discounted lunch sets just around $10. I had a Fish&Chips for $10.90 and a coffee too! They were very tasty! I love the chips, they were very crunchy!
Lastly, I joined RAQC Dinner Reward, I can get 20% cash back!
I think the most of times we went to Harbour Town, we chose Fasta Pasta for lunch!

In Sunnybank area, that is around $11 for lunch. That is a bit hard to find any lunch set under $10. Well, I found at New Lok Fok Restaurant. A lunch set included a hot drink is only $9.8. A few weeks ago, I had a lunch set, which is a crispy chicken noodle soup with a hot milk tea. That was not bad at all. I think that was value for money!

Australia is a multicultures country, there are a number of ethnic groups, such as Japanese, Korean and Chinese. Each of ethnic group brought their tasty cuisine to this country. Thus, we have a lot of chances to taste authentic cuisines from various countries.
Yesterday, we went to Gold Coast for a relaxing day trip. At night, we had our dinner at YOU（雄） Japanese Restaurant in Surfers Paradise. That is one of my favourite Japanese restaurants. I highly recommend their Sashimi Rice.
This dish contains tuna, salmon, fish eggs and squid Sashimi. They are so fresh! We mixed them with sushi rice, soy sauces and wasabi. That is prefect! Very tasty.
My other favourite dish is Eel don. Eel is cooked in a prefect way, the soy sauce on top is very very tasty! I believe you mush love it!
You must ask they are tasty, so are they very expensive? That is not too expensive, around $15.80 each!
If you go to Surfers Paradise, I will recommend you go to there for dinner.
