Tuck in to moreish Mediterranean at a new Bulimba eatery Ambrosia & Co
Oxford Street now boasts a welcoming eatery that specialises in aromas and flavours from Greece, Morocco, Tunisia and Spain.
Nicole Cottrell has spent years bolstering Bulimba’s food scene through her two successful locales La Quinta and Southern Attitude. Not content to stop there, Nicole has expanded her repertoire to incorporate Ambrosia & Co, a Mediterranean-inspired eatery situated in a new space fronting Oxford Street, boasting a bright and airy aesthetic, a new kitchen and coffee facilities. The visual elements of the space are complimentary, with new added windows offering ample people watching opportunities, with a spacious interior and some al fresco seating available to patrons. The space boasts a few nautical touches such as netting intertwined with ceiling lights, and model skiffs on every table.
Nicole has brought onboard several experienced chefs to help shape the menu offering, which includes options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Each dish aims to touch on a different flavour of the Mediterranean, with a diverse variety incorporated throughout the day. Morning eaters can stop by for breakfast bruschettas and heartier morsels such as truffled cheese toasties, shakshouka, breakfast souvlaki and matcha green tea bowls. After 11:00 am the lunch and dinner menu is available, with a range of meze plates, charcuterie boards, dips, souvas and grilled dishes up for grabs. Must-try options include Ambrosia’s iskender (charcoal grilled chicken pieces with spiced tomato sauce), salivation-worthy shrimp saganaki, tempting moussaka stuffed bell peppers and hearty harrissa spiced chicken. Ambrosia & Co also features a dessert cabinet with a range of sweet treats to sample, and the cafe serves coffee from a new local roaster, Quaff Coffee, which can’t be found anywhere else in Brisbane.
