However the mix of all the elements of the cinnamon and the basil and the nuts stuff ruined it for me. It came with like 6 pieces of French toast and a dollop of cream it wasn't enough.

I'm digging it. I like my white wine with seafood tapas ordered, fried calamari lacked flavor, sausage bites were a bit dry, but adored the chickpeas added to it, and mussels were the winner in tomato sauce! They had a special on tapas to choose from on a chalkboard menu for a set price. Service was dandy. I like the whole ambiance while munching away on a variety of ingredients with complimenting and refreshing white wine to quench the thirst. Satisfied, surely.

I've passed this place a number of times in the evening when I was on the tram heading up to a…read morefriend's house and I had been meaning to check it out for a while. Being a cafe that generally means that it opens early, and closes early, which meant that I had to get up early so I could come here for breakfast before work. Well, the menu isn't all that huge, but has a reasonable selection - I had the omlette and I must admit that it was pretty nice. The coffee was also pretty decent - actually the coffee was really good. The cafe itself is in an old back, which means that they have a room in one of the old vaults, which is also pretty cool. Oh, the staff were all right as well.

While my friend got the best ricotta hotcakes I've tried in a long time. I'm so happy she was in the sharing mood!! Some meals came with a half or full serve option which was nice and now I know for next time half will probably be more then enough. The furniture is very sleek and clean feeling... Ikeaish!? But comfortable enough, if only the tables were slightly bigger to accommodate their great portions! Service was quick and friendly. And the treats they have at the counter are close to irresistible!! I'll probably be back every time I'm in the area just to get some more ricotta hotcakes in my belly!

I rolled out of bed late, so it was nearly lunchtime when I hit Chapel Street. However, I wanted…read morebreakfast! Amici's was one of the places that still had breakfast.

I like the grunge atmosphere, too.

Amici is a fairly large bakery cafe on Chapel Street. They serve cakes and other sweet treats as…read morewell as main meals. Food: We popped in for a cake and cold drink after shopping. The cakes are the kind that make you drool every time you walk past. They are all made using fresh ingredients, and you can tell, they look amazing. Our gingerbread was great, light with a nice crunch and good flavour, but unfortunately the lemon tart was disappointing and was far too bitter to finish even with two of us sharing it. We ordered two juices as well which were super fresh and refreshing. Atmosphere: As the cafe is quite large, it can feel a bit quiet very easily. We found it felt a bit deserted even though there were still quite a few people in there. It has a nice design though, good separate area for people ordered take away and bright artwork on the wall. Service: Service was friendly and it's nice to go somewhere for a snack and feel you are being treated equally to people ordering main meals and we were, nothing was too much trouble. Would I go back: If I was passing. It's a shame, on the face of it looks like a great place but the cakes just didn't live up to expectation.

My friend and I had not come in a while and just ordered our normal items when we visited this week - we were not aware there had been a change in management at this point. After receiving the order (which was very poor indeed) we realized that something had changed and asked one of waitresses if there had been a change in management - she confirmed that this was the case. We wondered why there where very few in the cafe when we arrived, and now understood why- my friend and I are not planning to visit again any time soon.

Percy's Aeroplane is a pocket sized cafe located in Kew and quite a popular brunch destination in…read morethe neighborhood. They got such an adorable interior design and welcoming atmosphere; bright, youthful and cheery from the major applications of yellow colors and exposed white bricks, the space was also embellished with cute decorations that matches with their theme perfectly. For my brunch, I went with their most popular offering, Matcha Hotcakes. The presentation was very orgasmic to the eye, pictured this - two green tea hotcakes sandwiched between a Nutella brioche donut drizzled with chocolate ganache and garnished with berries and whipped cream. Sounds incredible delicious ain't it? Well... Not so much. The hotcakes were completely soggy, drenched with disgustingly sweet and runny chocolate and smothered with the bitter raspberry jam.... Overall, it tasted way too confusing for my simple palate. I also got their matcha latte, and it came in a cute "bear" presentation, but taste-wise, it was equally disappointing. Despite of the bright green color, there was no hint of the green tea, no sweetness, no taste whatsoever, this to me tasted just like a plain warm milk. Overall, other than the playful interior layout and the gorgeous looking food, color me unimpressed.

Now this was a pretty awesome coffee shop. I had known about it from my research, and while I was…read morekilling some time while wandering around Kew I decided to stop by and pay it a visit. First of all it is open on a Saturday morning, which is something that a lot of the other ones in Kew weren't doing. Secondly the coffee is nothing short of awesome. It is a little bit out of the way, but it still has a great charm about it, and while it does get crowded, it is still worth visiting.

I love these aesthetic coffee shops, but then again I love the cluttered ones as well, but it is…read morethe aesthetic nature of this place that I quite like. It isn't a huge coffee shop, and it is nowhere near as crowded as some of the other ones around the place, which is also pretty cool. The staff are quite friendly, and the coffee wasn't all that bad either. However, what I really liked about this place was just the relaxed atmosphere, the quiet surroundings, and the aesthetic design.

It's a beautifully designed little place, taking over the convenient corner space previously belonging to the Seddon Post Office. An all day breakfast spot, The Little Man offers the standard array of eggs, though someone at a nearby table ordered the 'Little Man's Burger' ($16 with chips or salad, one of three lunch options) and it looked freaking delicious. Will definitely give it a go next time I head there. They're clearly catering to the young family crowd in the area, with egg & soliders and nutella/jam crepes on the menu for the kiddies, as well as a doorway ramp practical for the ever growing size of prams these days. With HEAPS of lovely natural lighting and a huge share table in the front window, it seems like it's going to become a really great place to grab a coffee, do some work on a laptop or meet friends for breakkie. Latte was really smooth & nice, and while it was always going to be tough to live up to the coffee standards of their neighbour Common Galaxia, they're not too far behind. Give this adorable little place a few weeks to relax and settle in and it will no doubt become another well loved addition to the ever growing Victoria St.

I ordered the flamenco baked eggs on their specials menu which was served in a bowl instead of a baking dish. Slightly unusual as I couldn't see how the eggs were baked but it was packed full of flavour and spice! Serving was generous with lotsa mushroom, chorizo and eggs. Decoration was in line with its name too with tea towels hanging off the ceiling and little cut out fabrics hanging on the wall. I've read some pretty good reviews about this place and I'm glad to say it did live up to expectations! Not mind blowing great, but definitely on my list for future visits.
