Montezuma's in Caloundra, Sunshine Coast... I know there is actually a Montezuma's restaurant down in Gympie Road actually in Kedron but I haven't actually gone there before seeing the lack of enthusiasm or wantingness to go to a Mexican restaurant up in northside in Brisbane.. don't know why..
Anyway, went down to sunshine coast for a drive with a friend and beaching around and that, and was going to go back to Brisbane but then the time was nearly 5ish so we thought that there would be heavy traffic, and at the same time came across Montezuma's which somehow made my friend had the urge of mexican food..

Seen a long queue lately around a corner down at the valley..? well, it's not only for clubs nowadays, since this little cute Japanese restaurant bar opened up recently.. it's not your typical Japanese restaurant where you could easily order curry or udon and such.. But instead, it's all about their Dumplings and Beer... "Harajuku Gyoza" literally means 'Harajuku', a hip disctrict in Tokyo where females are usually seen with fun, visual kei, ridiculous, gothic lolita, fashion all inspired by the anime and games world, and as for 'Gyoza', it's the Japanese word for dumpling...I saw photoes around online and heard the hype bout it from friends... so I decided to give it a try one night after my long sunny hot day at the coast...
A new Japanese restaurant has just opened few months ago .. and I love its outlook seriously .. Although their menu is not long and doesn't consist of many japanese dishes like the typical japanese restaurants you may go to usually .. The problem with here is that during peak lunch times, expect the queue to be very long ... and the dishes you can buy from here are basically either soba noodles, udon noodles or rice .. it might as well be considered a fast-food restaurant ..
Located in Surfers Paradise in Lido Arcade, Orchid Ave .. This little Japanese restaurant is tucked away and it may seem small, but their variety in sushi and food dishes are alot ... Owned by Japanese and cooked by Japanese... Even the restaurant itself gives that Japanese street stall feeling .. At first, we were going to go to this other japanese restaurant but we found out it was either too far or it closed at the time, so we walked around and found this place and gave it a try ..
Cafe La Vie, a restaurant located outside of Westfield Chermside in the old Chermside area .. the entrance where the food court leading towards the cinemas are .. Owned by the same owner as Cafe di Luna in Sunnybank from what I have heard ... They have lunch specials everyday and steak nights ..
Max Brenner in Southbank.. Their motto "Chocolate by the Bald Man".. This is definitely worth a try if you are a chocolate fanatic =) or just a chocoholic I may say.. The photo above is the called 'Tutti-Frutti Waffle' which includes Warm Belgian Waffle drizzled with pure melted chocolate, served with Ice-Cream (Vanilla or Chocolate), Fresh Strawberries and Bananas. You could also add extras like marshmallows, Strawberry, Whipped Cream, Banana, Chocolate lick or Ice-Cream..
At first I thought, japanese ramen was only available in the city as in sunnybank most of the restaurants were chinese .. well, Hakataya Ramen opened its first store in Sunnybank but the one I went to for my first time trying during the mid-semester holidays was the one in Surfers Paradise. They specialise in the 'Tonkotsu soup'. They use Australian Pork and the best thing about ramen is the 'char-siu' which is seasoned pork slices .. the best, softest, melt-in-your-mouth piece of pork other than pork belly =)
Freestyle Tout is a Brisbane's iconic dessert restaurant... there's actually not many dessert restaurants here in Brisbane.. so a lot of people come here for the desserts .. if not, they just go to like other restaurants that also sells desserts ..
From what I remember, this was the Traditional Bread and Butter Pudding .. it was seriously ... sweet .. hahahh..
