For American style cuisine in Fortitude Valley, hit up Carolina Kitchen on James Street, a casual diner with a southern heart. This new Brisbane venue is housed inside a black and white themed shipping container and offers relaxed alfresco tables for diners to enjoy sunny days and watch the world go by, while focussing on a menu with some serious southern style fare. Bring a hearty appetite to sample all on offer and wrap your hands around a stuffed chilli dog with slaw and onions, or tuck a napkin into your shirt for the buffalo hot wings with blue cheese dipping sauce and a side of famous New York fries topped with cheese, sour cream and Carolina’s very own chilli sauce. A trip to Carolina Kitchen must include a slice of housemade American style sweet and sticky pecan pie.
