Ben McShane and Matt Kuhnemann’s 60-seat take on Clarence in Fish Lane, in a ground floor tenancy of the Cremorne apartment building, is a fetching, Alkot Studio-designed eatery, decked out in ribbed timber, globe pendents, green and white tiled walls, and green upholstered banquettes and seating.

It’s a major upgrade on the original Clarence in the old Shop Row building on Stanley Street in Woolloongabba. Longtime fans of the restaurant can expect a little more permanence on the restaurant’s menu, although it will still evolve by the seasons.

Expect dishes such as Nashville-seasoned tropical rock lobster with pickles and white bread, Jerusalem artichokes with a sunflower miso cream and yuzu, gnocchi served with caviar and a dashi cream, wild caught barramundi with dill-pickle butter and carrots, and dry-aged duck with witlof and a cumquat yuzu kosho. Wines are still all Australian, with a list that now runs close to 100 bottles.
