Japanese Dumpling and Beer sound  two different kinds of things. But last week, I went to a Japanese Dumpling Beer Bar,HARAJUKU GYOZA, at Fortitude Valley. There is a place to eat Japanese Dumpling while you are having beer.

Firstly, I wish to talk about Dumpling. They are a kind of Japanese Dumpling. They provides Vegetarian and Pork Dumpling which are the styles I had in Hong Kong a lot. That is not just usual style. They provides Duck and Chicken Dumpling . I like Duck Dumpling a lot. It tastes very very nice. Moreover, they provides very special dumpling, prawn dumpling.It looks different from the usual dumpling. They are very creative.Well they even go beyond just that, they created a style of dumpling dessert, apple dumpling with ice cream.

It tastes like apple pie. That is a kind of cool! I love it.

Secondly, that is their beer. I tried Sappro Beer, which claims the Oldest Japanese Beer. That is not bad, but that is a bit too large. A can has 650ml Beer. That is too much for me.

Thirdly, this beer bar is very nice and comfortable. I believe that is a place to relax and have a beer with your mates after work.

Lastly, I love there, that is a kind of fancy. I wish to go there again.

Yesterday, I went to Garden City, I found there is a new Korean takeaway shop ,KOFOO, at the upper level food court. Most of food courts  has Indian, Chinese and Japanese takeaway. Korean takeaway sounds a fresh idea! Thus, I  went to have a try. The menu has some choices of Korean Style Rice and Spicy Noodles. They looks cool, those dishes are similar with the other Korean Restaurants. But I tried to “unusual” items in the menu. There is a set of Korean Style Cooked Meat with Chips. I tried Sweet Soy Chicken with Chips.  That is a kind of fusion dish. Not too bad, but more tasty like western style takeaway. I think their Korean Style Rice will be better.  There is one things really good. It sounds fresh. I saw their kitchen from a small window in the shop front. They cooked my chicken and chips after I placed the order. That is not somethings siting in the kitchen for long time.

I will go there next times and try their Korean Style Rice.

There are many good Japanese restaurant. Maybe, Japanese had a lot of investments around Brisbane in 80s. In those resturant, my most favourable one is Oishii Sushi Bar.

Firstly, Oishii Sushi Bar got a set of unique hand rolls, such as Snake Roll. That is the one I love most! It got a tasty salmon and Avocado inside. I love it! I love it! I love it! The unique feature is those roll are slightly fired outside. That makes it more tasty!

SNAKE Roll

Another unique hand roll is Unatama Maki. That is a kind of Omelette hand roll. That is fancy! Moreover, it got tasty efl inside as well.

Besides of hand roll, their hot dishes are not bad too. I tried their Omelette Noodle. That is very tasty. Inside the omelette, it got stir fry chicken noodle with very tasty sweet soy sauce. I love the sauce a lot! However, I love their hand roll more than hot dishes.

Lastly, it located at Pinelands Road. That is the hub of Sunnybank which is so easy to access by cars! That is very convenient.

P.S. This restaurant is very popular, they are always full during dinner time. I suggest you phone to them for booking first.

Yesterday, when I had my breakfast in Sunnybank Plaza, I found there were a lot of people lining up in front of shop near BreakTop. Well, actually, that is a new dessert shop, MeetFresh. I think those people were rushing to try that new stuff! I got a same thought too! Because I don’t know much about that, all I know that is a Taiwan style dessert shop. So, I am keen to go there and find out what is “MeetFresh” about! But I was busy yesterday, I will go there next week!

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.

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!

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

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.
