Pawpaw Cafe

Wooloongabba’s Paw Paw café manages to celebrate the nuances of Asian cuisine while nailing contemporary breakfast all at once. The usual suspects – from omelettes to pancakes – take on an Asian variation with ingredients such as kalamansi (Philippine lime) and spicy tom yum dressing. If a slow start is on the cards, the lunch menu – available from 11am onwards – includes a Malaysian yellow curry complete with potato, spiced yoghurt and roti. The venue itself is light, bright and modern with ample space for groups or cosy corners for two. You can’t miss the white weatherboard cottage located conveniently on Stanley Street, just a few kilometres southeast of the CBD.
