Harajuku Gyoza Brisbane is another affordable casual restaurant that we tried when we were in Queensland, Australia earlier this year. Discovering a nice Japanese restaurant in Brisbane would have made us want to try it. The happy hour offer of wings & beer for $5 sealed the deal for us.
We had a quick dinner at Harry’s Esplanade Bar and Restaurant before the Singapore Symphony Orchestra (SSO) Concert at Esplanade Concert Hall, Theatres by the Bay.
