I’d been asked recently if I could write about some breakfast places in Brisbane and I thought what better place to check out than the Wicked Corner Cafe in Spring Hill.

Cha Cha Char - Come for the food, leave for the service
It’s the annual work Christmas party and, after a year of not participating in Friday drinks due to its limitation to beer and wine, I’m looking forward to generously partaking of the one night of the year where the company employs an open-bar policy [...]
