Fix Restaurant & Wine Bar

Fix Restaurant & Wine Bar, Brisbane CBD
A catch-up date with SaC brought us both to Fix Restaurant from his surprise reservation. My orientation in the city is still poor and I was whizzed to this busy looking bar and restaurant with their separate entrance respectively.

After ordering our main meals, we noticed that the waitress did not introduce us the specials of the day in comparison to our next table neighbours. A little disappointed with their service but I think their food made the visit worthwhile.

First off, we had the organic sourdough with olive oil and balsamic.

I am not a bread expert but I do feel the lack of sourness and the dense-ness that I expect from a sourdough bread. The well-toasted bread that we had was much lighter. 

While SaC ordered one of the 'Char Grill' section, I had their local Moreton bay bug meat with fresh pappardelle, chilli, garlic and tarragon butter.

Yum! Yum! Yum! The Moreton bay bug was cooked to perfection and the pasta al dente, all coated well by the creamy sauce. It can be quite a heavy meal but luckily SaC was around to help me finish them.

SaC asked for my advice regarding which cuts he should try and I said wagyu (even though I have not try it myself!). I think it was a good choice. He commented that the meat was really tender and soft.

His wagyu was cooked to perfection to his request. My eyes wandered towards his chips because they looked crispy and they certainly tasted crispy! The food was enjoyable and we both had good time.
