The New Black

Tucked down a quiet Ann Street alley. A proper Fortitude Valley heavyweight doing serious brekkie right. Valley regulars and lucky out-of-towners alike point to one undisputed champion of the menu—the Fried Chicken Benny. It’s a masterclass in texture. Flawless crumb-to-bird ratio. Expertly poached eggs. A silken benny sauce tying the whole beautiful, crunchy mess together on top of flawless, top-tier sourdough. Swerving the fried chicken? The grapevine insists the smashed eggs with earthy, dialled-in mushrooms are an absolute knockout. Dog-friendly seating. Icy chais to beat the Brisbane heat. Unapologetically good cafe fare without the wallet shock.
