After having hospital food for a few days, my husband was keen to get out of the house for brunch, although as he wasn’t able to sit comfortably for long due to the surgery, it was going to be a quick visit, rather then a leisurely morning! Luckily, we found a cafe to try just […]

On the suggestion of Jo-Anne from the wonderful vintage shop, Once More with Feeling, we walked along Victoria Street in Seddon, to indulge in brunch at The Little Man Cafe.

We stayed in Woolloongabba…a suburb of Brisbane QLD….over the Easter break, and we found a fabulous cafe within walking distance……the Pearl Cafe!

This week’s Eating Out features a cafe in the bayside suburb of Mornington…the Blackbird Cafe!

As you can probably tell from posts on this blog, we like to “brunch”…and we love tea…proper tea! However, we are constantly amazed at how many places do not know how to make a cup of tea that is actually enjoyable to drink…right to the last drop! Melbourne is definitely a coffee city…there are coffee […]

We decided to head into Prahan for a lazy, late lunch on a beautiful Sunday, and try Palate – this restaurant has a paleo inspired menu which apparently is the first of its kind in Melbourne! Palate showcases meals are made entirely of gluten free, dairy free and sugar free ingredients…perfect for us! We sat […]

On recommendation from Amy of Minette’s Vintage, we headed further north to Bridge Road to find Gypsey & Musquito for our weekend brunch experience. This quaint cafe stands out amongst all the other eateries in the area…its more like a cosy cottage inside, and has a menu with a real Australian flavour…literally! The decor for […]
