Japanese ramen is very popular in Brisbane, not only us, with strong Asian background, love it. A lot of local Aussie like that. I think that is the major reason, and our Brisbane CBD has a lot of good Japanese ramen restaurants. One of those i love is MEN YA GO. I tried that one again this week. I ordered a Shoyu Tonkotsu costs $14.80, which is a bit expensive, but it tastes great. The noodle texture is very firmly, which I like. And the soap base is with good flavor, a lot of sesame flavor. Moreover, it has free extra noodles too. But it already put in your bowl, rather than put in an individual bowel like others.
I love it, and i will have it again if I go to the city back.

Hog’s Breath Cafe is a steakhouse I and my wife like. Sometimes, we go to have a streak for dinner.
Actually, there were some good value lunch deals too. A few weeks ago, I have a chicken caesar  wrap with chips, they only are for $9.90. As a restaurant, the price is a good deal. If you have a chicken curry in a food court takeaway store, that will be a similar price.
I think you are considering to go out, that is worth to checkout their lunch set menu.

During past six months, there are a few new restaurant opened in Runcorn, such as REN and SOHO.Few weeks ago, another new restaurant are opened in warrigal square, that is Cha Kee(茶記) which is Hong Kong Style Restaurant.

Recently, the new extension of Garden City is opened. A number of new shops were introduced there.  One of new landmark stores is Noosa Chocolate Factory.  They offer a lot of number unique styles of hand-made chocolates such as blue berries and  sunshine coast macadamias.  By the way, I love their display shelves too. They made of wooden boxes. I love that of simplicity style!

I even bought some as the gifts for my friends in Hong Kong!

Also, this branch has a cafe too. You must try their chocolate drinks.  Some of my friends highly recommended.  Moreover, you can choose the chocolate level. I suggest 56% if chocolate, that is not too sweet.

Yeah! There is another place to have a non-alcoholic drink in Brisbane!

Recently, I tried a new coffee,Cafe Madeleine, next to Hoyts Cinema  in Sunnybank Plaza. Their shop front looks beautiful, I think they hired someone to design that.

Besides of the shop front design, their food tastes good and great values. Last times, we ordered a seafood pan pasta which sounds like a Korean-Italian fusion dish.

I love the sauce, which is very creamy. Moreover, it had a lot of seafood, such as squid, shrimp, mussels and fish. Wow, I paid $8.80 and I cloud have that many types of seafood, that was great value for money.  Moreover, that $8.80 meal included a piece of garlic bread.

If you go there after 2.30pm, you can try their omelet rice which is only $9.90. I tried their creamy chicken omelette rice.  I loved their omelette, which is fried very well. Inside the omelette, there were tasty chicken fried rice.  Of course, I loved their creamy sauce too.

In addition, this $9.90 deal included a cup of orange juice.

I am happy about the meals I had in there and I had my lunch in there for a few times too.
