Inner City
BRISBANE CITY
SPRING HILL
KANGAROO POINT
The high rise zone is a staff fridge favella of tupperware no more. It’s now a hot bed of haute cuisine from Spring Hill down to the Gardens and across to Kangaroo Point. If you’re fringe suburb faithful, you may feel it’s food adultery to be dining in the City. But eating’s not cheating. Anyway, the deadly sin at play here is gluttony, a victimless crime if ever there was one (unless you’re a scallop or a steer, in which case steer clear).
Why so much good gastronomy? It’s the economy. The inner city is booming with boutiques and flourishing with festivals. All that foot traffic would grind to a halt without a cappucino, a Campari or a carpaccio to go. So next time you hear, “Don’t cook for me, Honey. I’m working back.” drop the crockpot, catch a cab and catch the cheat chomping. “Honey, you’re served!”
