Eagle Street Pier’s best dishes honoured in Pier to Plate, a free digital recipe book
Though Eagle Street Pier has been shut for years in preparation for the $2.5-billion Waterfront Brisbane precinct that is currently underway, the legacy of its lauded restaurants lives on the memories – and stomachs – of Brisbane locals. Now, for the first time since 2022, fans can once again taste the pier’s signature dishes thanks to a free digital recipe book honouring Eagle Street’s rich culinary heritage. Here’s what we know …
Last week, a free digital recipe book celebrating the culinary history of Eagle Street Pier launched, giving Brisbane the chance to recreate some of the precinct’s most-loved dishes at home. Launched by asset group Dexus, Pier to Plate brings together Eagle Steet Pier’s signature dishes – and some future classics – in a curated collection that taps into the nostalgia of the celebrated dining precinct as it undergoes its transformation into Waterfront Brisbane.
Throughout the pages of Pier to Plate, readers can find highly sought-after recipes from former Eagle Street Pier institutions, including Il Centro’s renowned sand crab lasagne, Matt Moran’s duck and pea pie from Aria, and Barouti from George’s Paragon. The recipe book will also feature a few signature offerings from the precinct’s newest venues, including Naldham House and The Fifty Six.
