The new train line has opened, and this place which was once a massive pain to get to by transit is…read morenow walkable from a train station, so it seems like a good time to update the review. Logistics aside, I've been consistently intrigued. Malaysian cuisine is not a thing where I'm from. The basic elements are what you'd expect from any vegetarian Asian cuisine: noodles, rice, saltiness, soy products, etc. However, there is something slightly different; perhaps most notably when I ended up with some fried "chicken" product and watermelon juice and thought in my head that I might be eating comfort food from the American South. Among the many options I've sampled all have been palatable, and I'm still waiting to get around to the more recognizable names like nasi goreng and laksa. I've ordered differently every time, and if I were to repeat an order it would probably be for the roti chenai, a curry with fried bread that was much more delicious than the ones I've tried elsewhere. You can't go wrong with the noodle dishes either. It isn't the cheapest, but things are cooked fresh to order, and they're worth ordering. They also offer super cheap loose leaf teas. The worst that can be said of them is that once I came and they had closed during the slow hours on a weekday afternoon (inconsistently with their posted schedule), which in my experience is unthinkable for an American business, but not uncommon by looser Australian standards. Otherwise, the service and food have been on point, and I'm quite happy to have found them. I suspect vegetarian Malaysian will be a new thing for most diners as it has been for me, but I would suggest trying it.

Absolutely loved, Loving Hut! I cannot believe it took me this long to discover this place. Every…read morefew reviews I read were from omnivores, so it's a place for everyone, even being a completely vegan restaurant. The food was great! Menu is a great size, plenty to choose from. I ordered (so much), the B.B.Q Buns, Northern Pan Bread, Sweet & Sour Nuggets, Chocolate Mud Cake, Chocolate Soy Milk Frappe. Two highlight items for me were the Sweet & Sour Nuggets and Choc Frappe - so good! Coconut cream on top. I could pass on B.B.Q buns, but not bad! The menu has soo much to choose from, can't wait to discover more favourites! P.s. The atmosphere is very casual. Overall, a HUGE shoutout to Loving Hut, it's so nice having peace of mind that everything is vegan and can choose any option on the menu. Check out the meaty texture in the picture, WOW. Can't wait for the next visit!

Basically it is a pub, but it is full of all types of video games, and not only that but they also have a pretty decent selection of board games as well. Honestly, this place it literally a geeks paradise, and a guy like me could spend ages in here, especially if I happen to be gaming. Okay, it isn't open all that long, namely near the weekends, and in the evenings, but it is still a pretty awesome pub.

Part cafe, part supermarket, all amazing. I had no idea of this vegan / vegetarian / health food…read morewonderland existed on the north side but here, on busy Wardell Street between a spray tan shop and a church exists a shop where you can find all the faux meats, gluten free, dairy free, vegan cheese, and coconut milk ice-cream you could want. Half the fun of visiting is wandering the small but well stocked aisles to look at what products are there. For example, the toothbrushes made from recycled yoghurt containers I carried home from Wholefoods in the US - stocked here. Plus, the owners have branched out into a humble but delicious cafe where you can enjoy eats like the mushroom and mango salsa burger (DELICIOUS) or a sweet treat (like chocolate ganache cheesecake - totally vegan) from the cake cabinet. The coffee, Sacred Grounds, is organic fair trade and not like any blend I've tasted. Plus for those of us that can't handle too much lactose, I'm 99% sure my flat white was made on soy or almond milk which gave it an interestingly pleasant taste and yet no after effects of too much milk.

My vegetarian friend was craving cheese so we got the cheese platter and that was a dance on the palate. We shared a number of dishes between us and were surprised that the whole meal came to ~$40ea which I consider to be very reasonable considering everything is made onsite and just how tasty everything was. The only downside was that I can only eat so much so had to pass on dessert and any other dishes!

This seems a new addition to the Nundah scene, and they're big on all your organic, vegan delights,…read moreif that's your thing. They even have a grocery store right next door. The interior is pretty spartan. You most definitely wouldn't come here for the decor unless 'prison cell' is your thing, but hey, we were here for the food, not the scenery. I ordered the beef burger, which came with a side of sweet potato chips. Burger was actually quite tasty. Chips... well I don't like sweet potato, but if they had been a little more crunchy then I think they'd have worked for me. I followed up with a vegan dessert thingo, a mint slice. It was quite nice! Washed down with a smoothie which was probably the best part of the meal. Anyhow, would I come here again? Probably not. You're paying far more than you should be just for that 'organic' word, and there's just so many choices in Nundah these days. That said, if organic is your bag, go nuts. So long as their organic, free range nuts.

I think they forgot our tart as we waited such a long time and I had to ask after it. It then appeared immediately but was literally freezing cold in the middle. We already had to leave for school pickup so I gave them my feedback and asked for a refund as we hadn't eaten. Well we waited again for the manager and she questioned everything we said and was very snarky and rude about it. Eventually she capitulated but only when I started to get upset. Will never go back. So disappointed. I will still shop in the grocery store and garden shop but am absolutely appalled at the manager of the cafe. Shame on you. I worked in hospitality for 20 years, you don't know the meaning of the word.

This latest addition to Brisbane's robust plant-based food scene is notable for its simplicity. The…read moremenu looks like a menu from any other Australian cafe, offering things like French toast and polenta and a wide drink selection. The fact that all of it is vegan seems almost incidental. It is as hipster as most non-vegan Brisbane cafes, but by no means intimidating for anyone not wishing to be indoctrinated in a religion or lectured about animal rights. More than perhaps any competitor I've seen thus far, this seems to be the vegan place for non-vegans. All of which is great as far as I'm concerned. The food I ordered came out remarkably well. French toast without eggs is not easy and I've seen it be a tripping point for other cafes, but theirs was creamy and satisfying. It took a decent while for me to receive it, but the carmelized sauce on top sure tasted fresh. The pepper ice cream was presumably coconut-based, but I hardly stopped to think about it as I scarfed the whole dish down. Given that I never liked eggs anyway, I was quite satisfied and gave nary a second thought to its vegan-ness. The only thing I could have asked for was a more generous helping of fruit on top. The potato cake on the side was likewise delicious, and I was glad to have sweet and savory options together. Their menu offered a nice range of things that looked appealing. They still have a few kinks to work out, in my estimation. Their drink menu looked great, but I was asked about ordering from it probably one more time than was necessary. Their recycled wood tables are atmospheric, but I felt like I almost got a splinter on one. Between their website and their actual menu, they still seem to be trying to figure out what their prices are; there was a lot of variation. They will purportedly be open for dinner in the future, which I would really like to see, but at the moment it is a breakfast and lunch place. All told, I would probably back a few more times were my stay in this country not coming to an end, and I hope they are still here when I visit again.

I've seen this place set up booths at the occasional local food festival, but their brick and…read moremortar location of course has more to offer. It's a small, unimpressive space, but their food menu is quite broad, and the thali I ordered offered a nice variety, a decent bit of spice, and a surprise. Upon asking, I discovered that the strange (and strangely delicious) red dessert item was a lentil halwa, a house special. If I went back, however, I'd most likely order some of their street food specialties. They are vegetarian but offer plenty of vegan items if you want to avoid dairy. Their ordering system was rather interesting; as they use small tablets rather than ordering at the counter or table service. It worked well enough. They had more to offer than some of the fast food places closer in (albeit no grocery store attached), but what could be said against them is that it isn't as cheap. But it was good enough that I could see coming back.

What a fabulous find down the alleyway! Big kudos to my friend who suggested this location…read more It was the first night they were a bar so we decided to check it out! They were super friendly and let you enjoy the space and your company. They serve you water as soon as you are seated and then ask you what you'd like. I had the Lucy while my friend had the Coffee Ale. The sizes come in Pony, Mare, or Stallion! My friend loved the coffee ale. I'm not the biggest beer fan but the Lucy was light. We started to chit-chat with the bartenders and they showed us this chili vodka! He had me at "Chili..." My friend had the Bloody Mary and she kept raving how it was tomato soup for adults. She loved it! The bartender was great and nervous about creating a drink for me. We went with a pineapple chili vodka with a touch of mint. Yum! It needs some fine tuning but the foundation is set. We were having a great time and as if beer to vodka wasn't enough, we moved right along to tequila! Yes, some quality tequila and verdita. I'm a huge fan and they explained to us how quality tequila is for sipping. We didn't want to leave but the time had come. Thankfully, I know I'll be coming back very soon. Thanks for a great Introduction.
