Unassuming exterior but they offered beautiful and creative flavor profiles on the inside.
 
Ordered On
19Nov22
Miso Pork Benedict AUD24
Pulled pork in red miso sauce on English muffins with poached eggs, green hollandaise and apple salad

*Amazing. The umami flavours just layered beautifully and were highlighted by the sweet sour accents of the apple salad (Could have used more of this). A very well executed and pretty dish. A must order!*

Soft Shell Crab Omelette
AUD26
Open omelete with fried soft shell crab, Balado chilli relish, multigrain toast and herb oil.

*Though this came recommended by the staff along with the Mino Porl Benedict, it was a miss. Its nice but nothing special. Needed a little salt. The Balado chilli was nice, but its just chilli relish with plain eggs. A missed opportunity in my opinion.*

Hojicha Latte & White Chocolate Matcha Latte

*Both were good. The hojicha felt a little more watered down compared to the Matcha Latte which I felt they used the good Matcha powder to give that stronger, distinct flavor.*

Total Fed 2 at 35AUD/Pax

Food 3.5/5 (Ave out) The miso pork was  4.5
Service 3.5/5
Ambience 3.5/5
Value 3.5/5
We had a hit and a miss this time round. However as the other dishes flew by, they were very tempting. This is especially so with the beautiful, purple Ube Hotcakes which felt like a modern interpretation of Filipino halo halo dessert. Must come to try that next time.
