The 8 Best Japanese Restaurants In Brisbane
"Making the most of its Eagle Street Pier location, Sake Restaurant & Bar is a breezy iteration of Rockpool Dining Group’s popular contemporary Japanese concept. It’s also one of the best expressions of the long-established Sake chain, best experienced through the $110 “omakase”, which is more like a set-menu that’s loaded with the menu’s greatest hits like popcorn shrimp with yuzu mayo, a chef’s selection of sashimi, miso ‘Glacier 51’ toothfish, and Tajima wagyu strip loin.

Cool Brisbane Restaurants [2021 Edition]
"Arguably one of the most iconic restaurants in the Brisbane dining scene, Gerard’s Bistro is among the latest venues to hit the fashionable James Street precinct. It’s a little Middle Eastern and a little hipster, but most importantly, it’s visually spectacular. An elegant blend of fine lines, sharp angles and smooth finishes are combined with a menu inspired by Head Chef Ben Williamson’s sabbaticals from southern Europe to northern Africa with a unique Brissy twist."

Best restaurants for a night out in Brisbane
"When Gerard’s Bistro blew into town it created a dust storm. It represented change by embracing the ideology of the new wave of Australian dining that pulled the double white tablecloths off tables but maintained that focus on great food and wine. The combination of Gerard’s smart, casual swagger and a Middle Eastern sentiment that weaves throughout the menu makes for quite the dining experience."

So, no matter the season, you can soak in a stellar setting while enjoying another brunch, spritz or bowl of fresh seafood spaghetti.

The 10 Best Museums in Brisbane
"Housed inside one of Queensland's oldest buildings, the Commissariat Store Museum explores life in the colony and the state's convict history. It opened in 1982, although the original building was constructed by convicts between 1828 and 1829 to serve as the store for the Moreton Bay penal settlement. The museum's most notorious object is a bottle containing the "convict fingers," which, according to legend, were cut off by the convicts themselves to avoid hard labor."
