Grill'd .. The Healthy Burgers.. as they like to call it.. Sells gourmet burgers ranging from Beef, Lamb, Chicken, Veggie or Steak.. along with Snack burgers which are smaller burgers when that tummy of ours isn't looking for much.. and they also have hot chips and salads..
I have to say that in Brisbane, there is a lack of Japanese restaurants when compared to the restaurants in Sydney or Melbourne.. Japanese Restaurants and eat-outs can definitely fit your budget whether you're looking for cheap eats or average priced or the fine-dining.. Some Cheap eats would include places such as Hanaichi, Sushi sushi and those Japanese restaurants in Food courts you see... Whilst fine dining would include restaurants in the CBD or Portside or Gold Coast and so on, such as Sono, Oshin, Sake etc.. But in CBD, there's actually not much choices other than Hanaichi, Kadoya, Himawari, Ajisen, Sono or Oshin.. But, this place that is in Adelaide St, is not as easy to get to and as known to those in the inner city.. As you do have to do a little walking, and it is in Adelaide St.. I find it pretty easy to get to, but the other day when I tried directing my friend, they got somehow confused... Well, basically, if you're in adelaide st, go towards the post office square and keep walking walking until you come to a corner where you find a tall building and a bus stop just opposite a little eatery complex, and there it is ..... "Taros Ramen and Cafe" .. located right under the boeing house.. I shall say that this IS the BEST Ramen you can have in Brisbane.. =) from all the japanese restaurants I have tried~
Down at Hawken Drive at St Lucia, where all the UQ students would walk down or go down by bus to have lunch or snack or even dinner .. you would see most of the restaurants filled with people during peak times.. and amongst all the restaurants in Hawken Drive, from the vietnamese to the japanese, from subway to coffee shops and from thai to ice creams.. there is a Fish and Chip shop that is next to the Japanese restaurant, Edamame, called "A Salt and Battery"..
An Izakaya style Japanese Restaurant finally opened in Brisbane's Chinatown last year in 2011 and I have to say, the interior was a fusion of traditional and modern. With the timbered private booths and the touch-screen ordering systems in each, dangling down lights and the combination of the timber and bamboo blinds seperating each of the booths.. Normal seatings and private bookings are accepted and with the self-touch-screen-ordering system in each of the booths allows everyone to order anytime, as much and at their own pace.
