Chinahouse Seafood Restaurant (12 Duncan St & 173 Wickham St, Fortitude Valley, QLD)
I have been to this restaurant quite a few times… and it has always been a favourite of mine. The restaurant could seat all of Brisbane for dinner, and so therefore I’ve never had a problem getting a table. In fact going to an Asian restaurant with hardly any people seated, is a deterrant for me usually, but I was told about the Yum Cha served at lunch times. So I have been both...

A small group of 3 from Leisure Reviews visited Red Deli Cafe (located at 141/139 Junction Rd, Clayfield) late on a Sunday morning for brunch.

Each Mother’s Day, I (as I’m sure many sons do), allowed mum to select a destination of choice for breakfast on her special day. Back in 2009, mum had chosen the Mother’s Day Buffet Breakfast at the Mt Coot-tha Summit Restaurant after reading about it somewhere. Mum enjoyed it, so we decided to go back there again this year, in 2010 and give it another try. The Booking...
