Billy Kart Kitchen

Celebrity chef, Ben O'Donoghue (chef) and wife Dee (front of house) own the Billy Kart Kitchen, a modern Australian restaurant situated in my local area, of Moorooka but also now in West End. The place in Moorooka in terms of atmosphere is hectic and vibrant and the restaurant itself modern and pleasant with plenty to look at. There is a growing wall up the back, book shelves with cook books and retro items, an open kitchen and there are really only two negative’s, it’s hot. There are no ceiling fans and it’s noisy. While it can be difficult to hear each other at times, it kind of adds to the dynamic ambience too.

The meals are prepared from local produce and super delicious and well presented. Breakfasts are divine although I thought the sides were over priced and pretty small. The coffee is Campos and beautifully made. There are specialty dishes and Billy Kart opens Friday nights for dinner. My advice is, for breakfast, go the corn fritters and Asian eggs with prawns. Lunch, the pulled pork or mussels and well, dinner changes regularly. The French themed night was amazing and genuine. I loved Billy Kart Kitchen...
