I went tonight to the Bistrot Bistro on Logan road in Woolloongabba.
Woolloongabba has become a bit of a restaurant haven there in the old Moreton Rubber building. It's a nice looking restaurant helped by the interesting features of the old building.
Trouble was the food.
I had a Chestnut and Mushroom risotto as a main. This was the only vegetarian option (which I can be forgiving as it is a small limited menu of 5 mains).
To start the presentation was dreadful. All my meat and fish eating friends got delicate, beautiful looking (and tasting from what I've heard) food. Whereas my risotto was sloped on a plate/bowl with no garnish or anything looking like yellow slop.
The presentation I could have forgiven except to my disappointment the risotto was inedible. The rice was cooked well, but all I could taste was Parmesan cheese. Very overpowering Parmesan cheese.
I would definitely not go back until they changed there menu.
It is strange that ever since I have started this blog I have been to two 'bistros' and had two inedible risottos. Here's hoping my next review is not cursed!
Score - 2 Cheeses out of 5
