One crunchy spoonful is all it takes to become addicted to the delicious flavours of the Muesli Folk's handcrafted muesli mix. Nikki Grant runs the business with husband Jake and says the organic Canadian maple syrup-infused gluten-free muesli made to a decade-old recipe and roasted in a vintage baker's oven is their most popular variety.
It is also one of the original products sold from Brisbane and Gold Coast farmers markets where the family business began and where the owners of Windmill & Co, at the International Terminal, found the product for their menu. It's very much a taste of South East Queensland with organic fruit sourced from Brisbane to the Gold Coast, grains harvested from farms surrounding Toowoomba as well as macadamias delivered fresh from a farm in northern New South Wales.
"We care very much for our muesli and only source the very best fresh ingredients, all as local as possible. I like to pair it with coconut or natural Greek yoghurt and fresh Queensland fruit along with a plant-based smoothie," says Nikki.
Brisbane Airport offers a stage for many top local suppliers to showcase quality regional produce to a growing number of international passengers.
Windmill & Co has championed local craft beer since it opened, including ales from Brisbane's Newstead Brewing Co. and Gold Coast's Burleigh Brewing Co. which are both success stories in South East Queensland.
Former lawyer Peta Fielding and her brew master husband Brennan pioneered craft brewing on the Gold Coast when they launched Burleigh Brewing Co. a dozen years ago and their approach to making beer has since earned a slew of world championship medals for every one of their brews, including My Wife's Bitter English Ale and Fig Jam India Pale Ale served at Windmill & Co.
The Common, the newest venue in the Domestic Terminal, boasts a wide selection of Brisbane produced beers on the menu. From Green Beacon Co. in Teneriffe to Hudsons Brewing in Wynnum and Revel Brewing Co in Bulimba, the drinks menu emphasises hyper-local breweries, and is the perfect pit-stop to enjoy a few cold ones before your flight departs.
