Roti Place

Roti Place, Brisbane CBD Roti Place in the city has recently relocated to Charlotte St, replacing the old Little Singapore that was previously there. I have been to the old Roti Place years ago and it did not leave much impression on me then. However, I have heard good things about it recently and Mr and myself visited it after my doctor's appointment. Being Malaysian myself, I do have some high expectations of Malaysian food in Brisbane. Roti Place boast in specialising in making roti in their open roti kitchen and I had to try their basic roti - roti canai ($5.50). It comes with one piece of roti with a side of curry gravy. As I was sitting opposite the open kitchen, I managed to see the skilful girl making the roti from scratch. The roti was not too bad, my serve was not particularly crispy or flakey unfortunately. I think the one at Pappa Rich was much more flakey and crispy. The curry gravy was quite nice and spicy. As I have been craving for Prawn Noodle So...

Koto Sanpo

I think it is best to try their basic matcha latte and it came in a rather huge ceramic bowl. I could not fault their mat cha latte at all. The latte was creamy and most importantly, not overly sweet and there ' s still hint of bitterness of matcha which is how I like mine.  Now for our main meals, Mr tried their chicken karaage curry ($15.80) and surpri...

LuCha Kitchen + Bar

LuCha Kit chen + Bar, Brisbane CBD The old Elizabeth Arcade has been trans formed to a 'FudoDori' meaning food street and Lu Cha is one of the first few to set foot in this lane. I have got no idea re this place until I suggested to Mr let walk past this area and see what is new. Lu Cha has an opening offer that time which include 'Buy 1 drink and get the se cond one free'. Intrigued, we both went inside for lunch that day. While it may be busy that day, I thought the service was still prompt and friendly. Looking through the menu, the re are definitely a variety on the list ranging from different kind of rice or noodle dishes. I was definitely tempted to order their Si gnature Lu Cha Roast Chicken dish but worried that the servings size may be too big for the two of us.  In the end, we opted for their ' Seafood Laksa ' which came with a variety of seafood in cl uding prawns, mussels , fish cakes and fish balls. The serving size was decent but ...
