Food Scene
Fantastic little Italian restaurant just down the road from my house. They have a couples deal on a Monday which is $50per couple for your meal and a drink and on a Tuesday they have the most amazing magician that entertains during dinner. The prices are great, the service is amazing and you will be guaranteed an enjoyable night. It's also a BYO :)

The Carindale hotel is the 'local' for us Carina Heights residents. They have a lovely restaurant and a nice balcony for drinks. Some nights they have live music. Desserts are sensational and they have a large selection of cocktails, spirits and craft beers.

Some of the best sushi I've tried and at a very reasonable price. The restaurant isn't anything special - it's like a sushi train but the sushi and sashimi plates are to die for.

Parks & Nature
If you love getting amongst nature, you're going to love Whites Hill walking track. The track is super busy but such an enjoyable walk. You may even see some cute furry or scaly critters on your hike.

A wonderful and challenging hike up to the top of Mount Gravatt lookout where you will see breathtaking views of the city. It's so lovely to have a picnic at the top. There's also a little cafe opened now that serves coffee and cake.
