Baker D. Chirico had been sitting in my saved list for ages, and this week I finally went. It’s known for the fountain outside and the seats next to it, and I’d assumed it would be one of those places that looks good and tastes just okay. It didn’t. The Brisbane shop is at 18 […]
Idle New Farm Reviews
Before we went, I’d seen Idle’s Google rating, 3.9. When we pulled up, the tables outside were full of people, and it was a weekday. I picked up a blueberry Danish without thinking much about it, and it stopped me. It was astonishing. By the time I finished it I was annoyed at myself for […]
Bella & Tortie Stafford Review
I’d been following Bella & Tortie on Instagram for ages, reading the weekly menu and trying to talk myself into the trip. The bakery only opens on Friday and Saturday mornings, and it’s a long way from me, so it took me a while to commit. I was craving dessert badly, so I finally went. […]
Mitr Dessert House Reviews – Brisbane’s Thai-Inspired Dessert and Fusion Cafe

Soufflé Japancakes Greenslopes Review – Brisbane Southside’s Fluffy Japanese Pancakes
I’d known about this place for ages and just never got round to going, and now that I’ve been I should have gone so much earlier, it was so good! It’s Soufflé Japancakes in Greenslopes, tucked away on the Brisbane southside, and the Japanese soufflé pancakes there are made to order and wobble when they […]
Nos. Bakehouse & Cafe Dutton Park Reviews
Our friends kept recommending this place so many times we finally gave in and went. It’s tucked on a street that isn’t exactly a hot strip, nothing around it screaming “popular brunch spot,” so the half hour wait for a table caught us off guard a bit. Small menu, but every single dish on it […]
Sōfu Gelato Brisbane
We went back to Sōfu twice within a week, which tells you most of what you need to know before I even get into flavours. The first time was opening day, when the first 100 customers got a scoop for $1 instead of the usual $8.80. We queued for that. The second time there was […]
