Prior to moving to Brisbane, I lived in Venice, Italy for 6 months, where I became absolutely spoilt on genuine Italian cuisine, with daily specials made fresh by a crazy chef named Gianni. At the end of my travels, I moved to Brisbane where I was dismayed to discover an absolute lack of Italian restaurants [...]
I’m always interested in trying something new. So when I was told about a friend’s birthday gathering taking place at Montezuma’s in Mt Gravatt, I was naturally very curious. Specialising in Mexican cuisine, Montezuma’s is fitted out just like a traditional Mexican Cantina - or at least what someone who’s never been to Mexico (like [...]
Rarely do I go out to eat on a Saturday night; but on the occasions when I do go out to a bar and grill style restaurant I expect it to really blow me away. The Beach House Bar & Grill does this, and more. Located within the Myer Centre, not only is The Beach [...]
Having received a mysterious SMS to my phone telling me of a ‘new’ RnB / Hip Hop club in the Valley, I decided I’d check it out. After the majesty that was Mystique @ The Arena, I was up for some more RnB and was quite looking forward to the promised ‘old school’ hip hop [...]

For those of you who don’t, let me explain: old Mystique is the Mystique Nightclub, located on Warner St next to The Planet. New Mystique is the new home of the hip hop group that [...]
Back when I first moved to Brisbane, just over a year ago now, I was staying in a backpacker hostel while waiting for my apartment to be ready, which meant eating out almost every night of the week. A couple of times, I tried out The Elephant & Wheelbarrow, but was never really impressed - [...]
Following our coverage of the Wild Card Heat at Kitty O’Shea’s, I was invited to attend the National Final week for the Miss Hawaiian Tropic as a member of the press. After four months searching for Australia’s hottest bikini models, the national finals were set to take place this April, on our very own Gold [...]
When I first moved to Brisbane, The Exchange, also known as “the stocky”, was one of the first places people told me to check out. Unfortunately they closed their doors for renovations a week before I arrived and it took over a year for them to re-open. But since they’re relaunched and with many of [...]
With all the hype surrounding the launch of Cloudland, which has only been enhanced by the cloak of mystery that club management has thrown around the venue, I, like most people, was quite keen to check the place out following its Friday launch last week. Sadly, I had to work all day & night last [...]
Following a great night at Love and Rockets checking out the club for the last review, we were invited back to the club for a VIP party to celebrate the anniversary of the first walk in space, which was taken on March 18, 1965 by Russian Cosmonaut, Aleksei Leonov. Although this fits in with the [...]
