2012...Now opening Sundays for morning tea and lunch

This restaurant was recommended by a friend I met at the Treasury Casino. Someone he knew had just "taken it over" and French cuisine was now on the menu.
Yes I knew where it was...had driven by... so I might never have entered the doors and what a treat I would have missed.

“I live in Australia, I’m French and have a French business – I can show you France on a daily basis to the best of my ability.” said Michael

Le Baroque’s menu is entirely French, and head chef, Michael himself ,changes it regularly based on the fresh produce available.

“If we have the best tomatoes we must do something with tomatoes, if we have the best meat we put it on.”

Le Baroque is open Monday to Saturday for coffee/tea and for lunch and Wednesday to Saturday for dinner. The decor is amazing.

The charming tea house is situated in the nearby courtyard. Do not miss it.

To book call 07 5445 3388. Alert...be prepared for a burst of French if Michael answers.

Special Alert Michael was thinking of introducing a French Table on a Wednesday night...so even if you only speak French "un peu" give him a call.

Favorite Dish: For mains try Slow cooked duck leg on braised red cabbage on croquettes with wild mushroom jus. $A35
Truly delicious.
For your sweet tooth I can recommend Rhubarb Creme Brulee $A14

And we love the lunch menu as well.

For St Valentines Day 2010 there was a special Table d'Hote menu ,all inclusive beginning with Pink Champagne and canapes and finishing with a Chocolate Lover's plate to share for desert.

And there was an arrangement of roses for each lady...to take home. Wonderful.

What a nice party we had in 2012 for my granddaughters birthday. Just look at the special cake

And the next day the Virtual Tourist gang were there...again

This is a great eatery known only to the locals. That's because it's a little out of the way from the tourist strip!
The owners are Thai and the chef has worked in some of the big hotels. He knows his craft and even travels to Brisbane to buy hard to get authentic ingredients
Everything I have had from the menu is enjoyable and there is no corkage charge if you bring your own wine etc.
In short it's a nice quiet place to enjoy a peacful meal without interruptions. The staff are helpful but not intrusive and the servings are big enough to warrant the request of a 'doggie bag' so that you can take home what's left if you wish.
Best to book at weekends, and you can choose inside or outside tables.

Favorite Dish: My absolute favourite is the Red Curry Duck. Delicious! I also like the Crispy fish and the Pad Thai. But can't go past the duck which I order every time. My wife enjoys changing her order each time we go, but I like this dish so much I'd feel I was missing something if I didn't have it.

Both inside and outside tables available. It is just lovely finding a sunny spot in winter.If you do not fancy a table there are some funky stools. You can watch the passing scene. A cool breeze in summer and they have heaters in the colder months.

Favorite Dish: A cup of coffee with a genuine home made cake. One special thing about the scones...they are proper scones not rubbery. And the jam is home made as well.
