I had just got out of a grueling Geology exam and needed something of substance (spending 2 days on nothing but Ice Break Double-Shot Coffees is not a fun thing I tell you). Thankfully, I managed to stumble onto Seasons Provedore, a tiny little cafe in the Italian district of Lygon Street.
Ambiance: It was decently clean, with wooden tables and neat wallpaper. Not much quality with the decorations, but who cares, really?
Customer Service: The majority of the service was pretty good. There was one woman who handled the register and greeted people - she was amazingly kind and gave directions to some of the other employees so I assume she's some sort of manager or at least in a decently high position. One of the servers though wasn't rude, but she could be more friendly. When my breakfast came, she just sort of plopped it on my table and left without a word. Not even a "Here you go!" Fine~ I don't want to be friends with you either :c
Food: I ordered the Florina (Eggs Florentine) which set me back 16 dollars. Not bad for a delicious breakfast of poached eggs, spinach, smoked salmon, english muffins, and hollandaise sauce. I can testify that they don't skimp on the salmon or hollandaise sauce. Absolutely beautiful meal!

The Florina wasn't the most incredible Eggs Florentine I've ever had, but it for sure hit the spot. They could work a bit on improving their service and maybe their overall atmosphere. This restaurant lacks a bit of the strange charm a lot of Melbourne-cafes have to stand out. But will I recommend it? Definitely. read more
