Dining Out

The restaurants in Brisbane are really amazing.  There is every kind of cuisine imaginable and the restaurants are usually clustered together so that if you don't fancy the first restaurant you get to, there is another just a few metres away.  The photo above is from Park Road, the restaurant "village" that is about 3 minutes from where we live.  Oddly enough, the French restaurant is beneath a palm tree further along the street and there is an Italian restaurant beneath the Eiffel Tower.
There are lots of seafood restaurants here, but the biggest and best surprise for us have been the steak houses.  And not just a steak house, but a steak house that specializes in char-grilled steaks.  There is at least one in every cluster of restaurants and they always have a name that leaves nothing to the imagination: Cha-Cha-Char, Embers and, our favourite so far, Moo Moo.  And, like all good steak houses, they only sell meat dishes, no vegetarian dishes and especially no vegan dishes. 
We're sure they're out there, but we have yet to see a Mr Carrot Eatery or Veggies Galore Cafe.  Although even if we did see them, it's unlikely we'd go in.  Who wants a big juicy radish to close out the work week?
