The dishes were full of flavours, and portion size was generous. Only feedback would be that if the bread served were toasted, it would have been even better. Also, the pork belly probably wasn’t female pork and therefore has some smell, but luckily the seasonings helped to cover that smell a bit. Staff were friendly and helpful.

MY NEW FAVE COFFEE PLACE: Imaginative coffee menu and great service. Also can't go wrong with an all-day-brekkie menu, the pulled pork eggs bene was beautifully presented and a decent portion. Initially my coffee order was served incorrectly, but the staff were exceedingly apologetic about it and made the mixed up orders again at no charge which is phenomenal service.
