Rainy summer evening and I didn't feel like cooking so Dr L and I decided to take a nice evening stroll whilst foraging for some food. We ended up at the food hub at Woolloongabba and decided on trying out moody cocktail bar Canvas for some light drinks and snacks that evening.
We grabbed the last two seats of the night and luckily didn't have to wait. I liked the chilled moody interior. The menu had quite a few snacky foods to share as well as quite a good selection of cocktails, beer and wine.
Our drinks came fairly quickly. I had a Kiss of Death whilst he had a fruity mocktail. Mine was expectedly strong with a smokey creamy texture to it all although it was fairly sweet. Next time will try a more refreshing drink instead.
We had three tapas to share, the first to arrive was the Pulled Pork Tacos. These were small and bite sized with a decent amount of pork per taco. The meat was tender and stringy and I enjoyed the creamy sauce on top although I would have preferred the meat were more seasoned.
We also had a serve of Potato Croquettes. This was the perfect bar snack to go with alcohol. With a lightly crumbed and crisp exterior and a fluffy starchy interior it soaked up the alcohol well.
Last dish was the Lamb Meatballs, it came with some sourdough to soak up the sauces. By contrast to the tacos this was a definite flavour hit with a very well seasoned lamb, some tomato sauce and crumbly feta. We really liked the complementary tastes and would highly rate this dish.
Taste: 7/10
