DELICIOUS! LOVED IT!! Since then, I've gone again because I was craving the avocado bagel so much and now I'm still craving it!! Such a filling portion but they can give you a nice little container to take home if you can't finish it! ;-) I found this place a little cheaper than usual brunch but I guess you can't charge too much for bagels? But it's definitely a fulfilling brunch for sure!! I'm glad I shared this with another sweet bagel with a friend because it could potentially be avocado + bagel overload! I recommend getting this on the sesame bagel!
I looooove freshly hand made soba! I used to absolutely love this shop when it was in Queensland so I was extremely excited to hear that one of the grasshoppers from the original restaurant in Queensland decided to open a shop in Melbourne! I think once you try hand made soba, you can't go back to store bought ones! (Unless you're making something fusion like soba salad!) Compared to the original restaurant, there was room for improvement (e.g. the sauce was a little salty and the soba was slightly less flavoursome). But I was so excited to eat fresh hand made soba again! Would go back there anytime!
A nice thin and crusty base with good cheese! I would've liked a little more flavour on the topping though... Perhaps a little drizzle of truffle oil? BUT their chilli olive oil is absolutely delicious and when I topped the pizza with it, it was DELICIOUS! You have to like your pizzas a little spicy though! For only $13, I think it's a nice little place for a weekday lunch if you have the time!
The pistachio bread was nice! But it tasted more like a lemon loaf rather than pistachio? The sides were nicely caramelised and crunchy with dense and moist insides. The fresh mint leaves were definitely a nice touch to this dish!
Hmmm... I think the balance of this dish was slightly off. Each part separately was quite nice but there was an overwhelming amount of pork compared to the almost pathetic amount of corn fritters. The flavouring and texture of the corn fritters were good though! Fried eggs were a little burnt for my liking and I would've preferred poached rather than fries with this dish... Also, the pork wasn't interchangeable with any vegetarian option which was a shame... In fact the vegetarian dishes were almost non-existent which I thought was unusual at this day and age!! I think it could just be due to the different crowd that goes to this cafe.
I generally enjoyed this dish! I liked the combination of the slightly spiced fluffy pancakes with yoghurty salad! Generous portions too! The only negative thing is that it got slightly boring towards the end maybe?
Kama Sutra chai leaf with Bon soy and honey. DELISH! This tea leaf has a good balance of spices and not too strong on certain flavours so I really like it! I guess it's personal preference though! Very good balance of hot water and milk too!! Really enjoyed it!
Beautiful mocha!! The coffee here is always just that little bit special especially with the crafty drawing using milk froth!! Cute panda!!
Decent corn fritters with a good combination of toppings!! It was slightly missing the "AMAZING" factor but I just can't remember where I've been that had really good corn fritters! And I LOVE corn fritters!! The search continues!!
Love a good smashed avocado!! Although there wasn't anything particularly special about it, I love fresh avocado with feta, fresh herbs and lemon juice so I enjoyed the dish!
This was quite nice but I'm glad I shared this and raw spring rolls with a friend because this could potentially get a little boring on its own. Yummy though!
