Hungry? Brisvegas is a coastal town, so there s one thing you can always be guaranteed: the seafood is good. Not just a meal, seafood in tropical Queensland is more of a pastime. You can make an afternoon of lazing about the grassy knolls by Brisbane s shores with some peeled king prawns, and take a football or cricket bat with you for some entertainment.
