Australia's First Gnocchi Bar Is Coming to Brisbane
Don't gnocch it 'til you try it.
If you like your pasta round and made from potatoes, then you're going to like the latest cuisine-specific eatery setting up shop in Brisbane. No, it's not an Italian joint. Not, it isn't dedicated to doughy noodles in all shapes and sizes. Instead, Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers is about to become Australia's first dedicated gnoccheria.
If that name sounds familiar, that's because you've likely come across Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers' busy stall everywhere from the Jan Powers Farmers Market in the CBD and Eat Street at Hamilton to the brand new Mount Gravatt Marketta or Night Quarter on the Gold Coast. Due to start serving their fresh, house-made potato parcels from Paddington's Given Terrace in late October, they're now making the leap so many market-based Brissie businesses have in recent years by opening their own bricks-and-mortar establishment.
What none of their predecessors offer, of course, is an impressive array of gnocchi in varieties such as pumpkin and ricotta, and with sauces including bolognese, wild mushroom and truffle, and cherry tomato and black olive. Everything is made from organic ingredients — and if you want something other than the the Brothers' dish of choice, then you'll also be able to grab an Italian cannoli, tiramisu and panna cotta for dessert.
When the store first opens its doors, Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers will be a takeaway-only affair; however plans for a small dine-in area are also afoot. And you'll be able to pick up a small range of Italian groceries on site as well. We recommend stopping by on an empty stomach.
Find Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers at 210 Given Terrace, Paddington from late October. Check out their Facebook page for more information.
