Food at Gavroche Brasserie
The menu is classic French brasserie cooking. Mussels are the dish diners name most, served in a green parsley and garlic broth with chips on the side, and one diner also praised a fermented chili butter. Steak frites, tournedos Rossini and sole meunière appear in reviews, along with foie gras. Moreton Bay bugs come flambéed with Cognac and gratinated, and crème brûlée closes the meal.
