Bella Cosi is a nice little restaurant located on one of Chermside's quieter side streets, although…read moreduring peak shopping times these streets tend to get overcrowded and a bit hectic. Paid parking now being instituted at Westfield Chermside has caused a lot of the traffic to spill out over into the streets, which unfortunately can limit your parking choices for Bella Cosi. The place itself however is really quite lovely, with the choice of both outdoor and indoor seating. It oozes Italian charm, with red, black, and white seats and furnishings and an Italian street scene occupying an entire wall that gives you itchy feet and makes you want to travel. There's even the odd vespa outside, which only adds more Italian charm to the place. The tea they serve is made from real leaves, no fake tea here, and their coffee is strong and smooth, just what I love and expect from a true Italian restaurant. Breakfast is a treat here, with fluffy berry pancakes served with ice cream and excellent scrambled eggs. They also crisp the bacon if you request it. Breakfast isn't a busy time at Bella Cosi, so it's a really nice place to sit back and enjoy the Italian aura without excess noise or worries. Getting in early has its benefits, including easier parking and less of a crowd.

Located on Given Terrace in…read morePaddington right next to Montrachet, the décor is flawless, the staff are friendly, and the food is outstanding. Our entrée of bruschetta was some of the best I've tasted and it was a dead heat as to who received the best main course. My gnocchi was rich and creamy without being overbearing or heavy and went nicely with the caprese salad I ordered as a side. I tasted my companions' dishes (penne puttanesca and prosciutto-wrapped pork) and both were incredibly flavoursome. We ordered a tiramisu and panna cotta from the dessert menu and thoroughly enjoyed both along with espresso shots. The restaurant is simply but beautifully decorated and Italian film and television posters adorn the walls. The ladies bathroom was very clean and spacious and perfumes were available for those needing a top-up. Overall, the experience was fantastic with the only room for improvement being the lighting, which was a little bright. I'll be making the trip to Paddington quite regularly.

Grappino is located next to one of Brisbane's icon restaurants (Montrachet) and often gets…read moreoverlooked when considering a great place to have a meal. It's a traditional Italian trattoria and is a wonderful little space inside the restaurant, with part of the space dominated by a very large collection of Italian (and other countries) wines, which can match any of the meals you opt for. The menu is very pasta based, which is great for an Italian restaurant, but there are other options just in case you feel like something different. When the restaurant is full, it has an amazing vibe but it can become a little difficult to hear your dining companions, so if you love a robust conversation and a good meal Italian style, then Grappino is the spot

Then I see lots of locals carrying Naples Pizza boxes as they enter their houses or walk up their driveways and it always makes me jealous. Naples Pizza is nothing fancy. It's your standard, local pizza place, but who doesn't enjoy some standard pizza now and then? It's nothing fancy or gourmet but it's tasty and reasonably priced, and open every night. You can eat in (though i've only ever had take-away) and they have soups, mains, pasta, desserts as well as the pizza they're named for. Every neighbourhood needs a pizza place, and Grange is lucky to have Naples as theirs. Nothing fancy, nothing gourmet, nothing unusual. Just good old mid-pan, traditional pizza.

They are served in half a somun (a soft chewy flatbread) and are delicious. We give a big thumbs up for their goat cheese, rocket and mushroom salad too.
