Damian Griffiths Is About to Fill South Bank With Delicious Kiosks

He's brought Brisbane doughnuts and bubbles, made Alfred & Constance one of the Valley's top hangouts and the Limes one of its coolest hotels, plus added Kwan Bros to our list of must-eat Asian eateries, too. He's Damian Griffiths, Brisbane restauranteur and entrepreneur extraordinaire — and his next stop is South Bank.

If you've ever thought that the riverside precinct that hosted Expo '88 all those years ago needs more kiosks, then you're on Griffiths' wavelength. Over the coming months, he'll be filling a space on Grey Street with more than a couple of places dedicated to your favourite foods.

With Doughnut Time one of his most popular eateries, expect glazed, fried pastry circles to start hitting South Brisbane. Ice cream sandwiches and milkshakes are among the other options currently mooted.

Regulars to the area will have spotted that Grey Street has been undergoing a revamp in recent times, with a number of beloved shops — including now online tea store Tlicious — closing down and making way for new businesses. If revamping the inner-city hotspot means more sweet treats like Griffiths is planning, then consider us all for it.
