Description from restaurant: Two Birds One Stone is one of the best canteen cafes in South Yarra, VIC. It's where you can have a delicious vegan breakfast with your favorite items. Whether you want to just have a cup of coffee or enjoy a delicious brunch, this French café has everything you would need to enjoy your café time. Moi: Everything they said is accurate! I had the ricotta pancakes and it was soft, flavorful with fresh fruit. Also had the braised pork belly, bacon and a poached egg. The pork belly had the perfect mixture of crispy and fatty bits, delish!!! Definitely worth a try! -ODL Follow my IG: @AOEAT

Brunch rarely ever disappoints and when it's as good as what you are served at giddiup then your day is made. Located around the corner from Coventry street is this small cafe with both outdoor and indoor seating. As soon as I arrived on a Sunday, I was immediately seated. No queues here. The menu has a range of breakfast options with interesting items like chai toast, bread butter pudding with mascarpone, smoked trout rillette and stuffed mushrooms with gruyere and pans-something cheese. There were a few people waiting for takeaway coffees and the cafe offers various coffee blends. I went immediately for the mushroom dish whereas my friend grabbed the pudding. The salads on the menu also looked delectable but alas they are only offered mon to Fri. My massive brunch dish included two large field mushrooms stuffed with cheese and garnished with rosemary. Omg I could smell it from faraway and each bite into the mushroom was creamy and succulent. The sourdough toast had seeds on it and was delicately buttered and just enough. I also got two poached eggs and was full halfway through my meal but it was so good. The bread butter pudding sorts of tastes like a baklava with its crispy yet soft layers and is balanced by the creamy mascarpone. Definitely a nice sweet indulgence and quite filling. The coffees came in babycino cups and were awfully astringent. Not to my liking but nice and creamy and extra hot. Service is quick, efficient and friendly. Seating is crate style, small stools - non posture friendly and wouldn't recommend this place for groups.

On the Corner of Francis and Coventry Streets, South…read moreMelbourne, Giddiup has been around for a while. This seems to be an unintentional trademark of mine; reviewing hot spots months after the fact. But I do get onto all the cool places eventually. To start, I ordered the double mac- Pretty ace. It's a small little space at Giddy, so it hold seats a few. Hence, it's good to snare a seat/table if you can. This can prove a challenge. Low key menu offerings, but lots of good things; breakfast, little snacks and small pastries. BLT Brioche bun- Crispy Bacon!!! Awesome, tiny, but good. Gruyere and mushroom toastie; it's simply heaven. Pizza type dough, folded and grilled w/ button mushrooms simple, clean and rich flavours. Indulgence! The focus here is on quality coffee; it's good to see this as a burgeoning trademark of many new and emerging caffeine dealerships. Giddy is a small little space removed from Sth Melb Market, and the hustle and bustle of Chez Dre. Enter through Francis street. Wow! the day i come to review, a review is printed in the weekly review Blimming brilliant.

The cakes are magnificent and you can taste the quality in them, and know they're not mass produced. My new favourite place :-)

Go at 11.30 and both the breakfast and lunch menu will be available to you. So will the range of sandwiches and sweets in the display cabinet. I've heard great stuff about their breakfast menu and was tempted by the brioche French toast with seasonal (spring) fruits and caramelised pecans! On par with those from hardware societe, the French toast was a good combination of refreshing sweet fruits, rhubarb, cream and crunchy pecans. There were some pretty mouthwatering selections on special and savoury options for breakfast too. Think croque monsieur, croque madame, baked eggs etc... Great brekkie staples one would expect to find in a South Melbourne cafe. We also took away some cakes... The cake display cabinet was a work of art! Individual cakes looked as pretty as they were delicious! Can't wait to go back for some savoury options! And unlike other popular hole in the wall brunch locations, chez dre has a huge space, both indoors and outdoors. The queue moved surprisingly quick too given the number of people waiting at the entrance. Two thumbs up! The kitchen probably struggled a little with the volume of orders as we had to wait a fair amount of time before our coffees and food arrived. On the plus side, food and coffee arrived at the same time which made for a good meal..! Will definitely recommend this to anyone who's in the neighbourhood!
