Here comes another popular breaky cafe that Melbournians adore. It was a wet Sunday morning, 20 minutes wait for a table inside as it was too cold to settle for outdoor sitting! Ambience was quirky and relaxed, just the perfect spot to dine in on a lazy and gloomy Sunday. Favorite theme - sheep and the color of yellow - talk about disconnection. Not a major problem as long as the food delivers.
My cuppa was very smooth although a little too strong for my liking which leaves a tangy taste lingering around my throat. Strong coffee lover would adore the choice of beans used.
In house creation - Three Bags Scramble. I have always been a huge fan of scrambled eggs. This dish brought a whole new dimension to the definition of scrambled eggs. It had a tad too much milk, which made it rather sticky but having said that, it contained loads and loads of taragon. Being a cheese lover, I could not go past pecorino scattered on my omelette - it added the richness in taste that was needed to bring out the flavors of the herb. The toast underneath was fresh and toasty with heaps of sesame seeds.
The other dish that caught my eyes was the steak sandwich with bacon and beet root puree. It was absolutely tasty. The steak was tender and juicy, and very well seasoned. Surprisingly filling for a gourmet-styled steak sandwich.
Staff was very attentive but rather disorganized. The wait time for the food was rather long - there were quite a few tables waiting on their food as I was seated. The food nevertheless is very delicious; which is why Melbournians absolutely adore this place - and would endure a relatively long wait time.
