Maiala Rainforest Teahouse Mt Glorious

Posted by Lea on November 5th filed in Brisbane, reviews

Some months back we were out and about caching in the afternoon, when we just had to stop for something.
We were out west near Mt Glorious, and spotted Maiala Rainforest Teahouse.

We had seen it several times while toodling over the mountains (sometimes it seems quicker to cross Mt Glorious to get out of Brisbane. Most of the time it doesn’t…) and had always meant to stop, and now we had the opportunity.
While they don’t do a high tea, they do do a very nice devonshire tea – and while I do love my High Tea, anything that comes with tannin will do in a pinch!

We were a largish party on this day, and most of us chose scones with jam and cream, but hubby chose cinnamon toast, because he has a fetish for cinnamon.
They were very enjoyable and it was a good stop.
Except for the leech!
We were sitting out on the verandah, because it was a lovely day and a leech tried to join us! It was edging along the verandah top, reaching out to each of us nearest.
Ugh!
If there is anything I hate, its a leech (ok, ticks are definitely worse).
I watched with fascinated horror and couldn’t take my eyes off it, so repelled was i (Umm.. that makes sense, really!)

But we’ll go back, anyway.
