Chow down on ribs, burgers and wings at Texas Bar n’ Grill’s new Camp Hill location

22 Dec 2016

If you ask any red-blooded carnivore, they’ll tell you that the home of authentic barbecue is Texas. With that said, opening a barbecue joint called Texas Bar n’ Grill puts a lot of pressure on your product, but when that venue opens a second location in Camp Hill you know that it might be doing something right. The new Texas Bar n’ Grill location does justice to the storied lineage of Texas-style barbecue, slow cooking some of the meatiest morsels in town.

It’s showtime! Red Hill Cinemas opens to the public

05 Dec 2019

The film industry is in the midst of a love affair with reboots and sequels – head to the movies lately and you’ll certainly spot a trailer for the newest iteration of Charlie’s Angels, Bad Boys, or Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Call us pessimists, but we don’t have the highest hopes for these flicks. Nevertheless, there is one cinematic reinvention we can get behind – Red Hill Cinemas. The latest addition to the Five Star Cinemas portfolio pays tribute to the venue’s rich entertainment history while offering all of the mod cons you’d expect from a premium theatre experience.

Burgs to the ’burbs – Broken Hearts Burger Club opens a new location in Mango Hill

24 Jun 2021

With a burger scene as packed as the one we've got in Brisbane, just to be regarded amongst the city's upper echelon is a feat in itself. Broken Hearts Burger Club might be a relative youngster compared to some of Brisbane's established burger-centric operators, but the pop-up turned smashed-patty superstar has quickly earned enough local praise to elevate it to the top of the heap. This week the crew expanded its footprint with a brand-new locale at Mango Hill Marketplace, taking its range of classic hand-smashed handfuls, fries and stellar shakes to Moreton Bay.

Destination

Annapurna, Nepal

21 Nov 2013

It is pitch black and all that can be seen are the spotted head torches of pre-dawn trekkers. They move at a snail’s pace as they wind their way up yet another mountain to the Poon Hill Lookout. The lookout is more than 3,200 m above sea level and the air is thin, making every breath and every step harder and harder. The previous day’s trek has taken a toll on my muscles, but my mind is clear and determined – at daybreak I will be on top of Poon Hill to see the orange glow of sunrise highlight the snow-capped Annapurna mountain range of the Himalayas.
