Eat Street

There is a place in Brisbane that I have been to three times now however need to revisit at least another fifty if I am to get the whole experience. You know like unlocking all those trophies in a video game to get 100% completion, that’s the feeling I get.

That place is Eat Street Northshore just outside of Brisbane, I gave you a little teaser a week or so ago when I was there and said I would blog about it again as I had taken a few photos. I may have blogged about it in the more distant past as well I am not sure, I have definitely posted to Instagram from EatStreet so the chances are I gave a little upload to WordPress too. But these are certainly fresh pics and who doesn’t like fresh pics?

Now I am unsure what that trophy would be for eating at every single one of the stalls here, maybe a donut the size of a car tire or something. I also wonder if any of the locals have achieved it, that sure is one epic man vs food style challenge considering how big this place is.

So far I’ve had Thai.

I’ve had Brazillian.

I’ve had an epic ice cream the size of my head from this dessert section.

But with the sheer amount of food stalls on offer, I am nowhere near satisfied enough to tick this off the list just yet.

It is easy to get to from the city centre, roughly 15-20 minutes depending on traffic or a 50 minute journey up the Brisbane River on a fast boat. This time round we took the fast boat and it was a really good journey.

I like the atmosphere, there are bands performing on the two stages here over the weekend (it’s only open Friday to Sunday), pets are allowed in which is cool, it’s in the direction of the airport so planes are flying overhead however not too loud… It just feels very active and I like that.

And the food is as good as the sunsets over the Brisbane skyline that can be seen downriver. Every now and then they will have fireworks, I have seen them twice in the three times I have been so I am unsure why some days have them and some don’t. Maybe you know why this is? Let me know if so.

Perfect doesn’t exist, but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t settle for damn near perfect with anything in life really. Just don’t be like this skeleton and wait too long.

I agree the candy floss is Instagram worthy as it states below, however warning it melts very fast. And it incredibly sticky. Australian summer isn’t the place for candy floss it seems.

So if you’re around Brisbane as a local or visitor, this place is well worth a visit. Just don’t eat beforehand as there is plenty choice here and that is the main focus of the venue. However if you are one to get full easily don’t worry, the live music makes it worthwhile.

You never know, there may be a surprise proposal too…
