WINING & DINING

ALFRESCO DINING BRISBANE STYLE Alfresco dining has become a Brisbane trade mark – and

why not? With spectacular weather and amazing city

views it is little wonder people flock to riverside and

outdoor venues.

The South Bank area has many fine dining and cool

contemporary restaurants overlooking the Brisbane

River or the parklands. For a great buzz try Piaf or the

Sardine Tin, or for waterside views go for South Bank’s

newest addition, Stokehouse. The South Bank Surf Club

offers a great view of the famous Streets Beach and the

city skyline.

The Brisbane Powerhouse at New Farm and the restaurants

along the river at Teneriffe are other great outdoor dining

options with spectacular views; as is Portside Wharf which

offers a range of international and contemporary cuisine.
