(Left Field- 358 Koornang Road, Carnegie)

To be very honest, I wasn't that excited when my best friend (who's been in Melbourne for quite some time) wanted to bring me to one of her favourite cafés for brunch, because quite frankly, the past few cafés that I've been to have been pretty underwhelming. But I should have trusted my friend's foodie instincts because it too, turned out to be one of my favourite cafés of all time.

Our drink orders were promptly taken the moment we sat down and before long I got to take the first sip of one of the best coffees I've had. I'm not going to say 'Oh, Melbourne has the best coffee' etc, because coffee (like taste in other food) is very subjective, and I also have had good coffees on our little island. I greatly enjoyed this coffee because it wasn't too acidic, and I especially loved the fact that the addition of milk didn't dilute the bold flavours of the coffee (most cappucinos I've had were far too milky for my liking, so I usually go for long blacks). AND the fact that they made a Triple Rosetta on my coffee already let on that the team spent time, love and effort on what they serve (when they could have just done a basic heart/single rosetta design which would undeniably have taken a shorter time).
