    Fonzie Abbott: Racecourse Road’s Only Cafe

    Racecourse Road is not a good place to go for coffee; there are not many places that can do a passable long black.

  • After weeks of being told about the place, I finally visited a great cafe/coffee lounge in Wooloowin called CoffeeGuy. It was not until a friend and I arranged to catch up on the weekend there that I finally got around to checking the place out.0November 30, 2011

  • It is hard to find a good coffee in the city outside of normal work hours. After 4pm, almost all of the cafes close, leaving just a handful huddling around the mall, nothing like the number of options available during the workday.0September 12, 2011

  • I only know of two dedicated cupping rooms in Australia, one in Sydney and another in Brisbane. And both are in Campos cafes. The one in Brisbane has been open for a few months now, and at least from what I've heard, has been popular.0August 9, 2011

    Coffee Cupping at Campos Brisbane

  • To some in Brisbane, Racecourse Road, Ascot is known for cafes. Which is odd, since almost all of the cafes on the street are not especially remarkable. There is a Coffee Club, a Grill'd, a small Japanese place, and a few other restaurants and cafes, but none can compare to a decent cafe, let alone somewhere like Campos or Dandelion and Driftwood.0June 18, 2011

  • A lot of cafes serve long blacks too hot, as if the shot is poured into boiling, rather than hot, water. It seems to be a matter of preference; I know more people who prefer their black coffee super hot than those who don't.2April 26, 2011

  • Working on the desk at a powerlifting meet is a busy job. You need to ensure the lifters get their next attempts in before they run out of time, keep the lifters aware of the lifting order and make sure the result from each attempt is entered, and often all three at the same time. 6April 17, 2011

    Takeaway Coffee for a Powerlifting Meet

  • St Patrick's Day is a bad night to try and find a quiet coffee in Brisbane's CBD, even if it is to say farewell to a friend over coffee. Fortunately Cafe Mondial on Albert Street looked free from green hats. We were directed to a table by one of the staff, and ordered a pair of long blacks, one with milk on the side, and some wedges.0March 26, 2011

  • For me Wednesday is the worst day for buying coffee on the way to work. It is the day I usually run out of change, or need to find enough small change for a takeaway coffee.0March 12, 2011
