#poorstudentfood #comfortfood The charred meats, terribly cut slices, crisp crust and mountains of bacon have never failed to sooth my soul.
Like, how is the milk so thick? Is it the cows? Why is this so tasty? How does the lime jelly go so well with the coconut mousse? I'm at @kokoblackchocolate along William Street. I remember the early uni days when my friends and I would drive down to Claremont Quarters, sit at a tiny corner and order the iced chocolates and laugh and laugh and laugh. Two generous scoops of chocolate and vanilla ice cream swim in a glass drenched with chocolate sauce and filled with thick, creamy milk. Tasty milk chocolates shavings are heaped on top (I asked for a smaller amount today) and each decadent scoop was an indulgent bite of freedom. Sweet, too sweet, and a little escape from healthy living, this was relief from poor student food. Today, I also ordered the special, a creamy white chocolate mousse tinged with coconut, topped with a thin layer of crumble and dedicated coconut. Wobbling on the surface, a wibbly dome of lime jelly. The burst of lime contrasts sharply with the delicate sweetness and tropical flavour of the mousse, a break from the sweetness of the dish. This is amazing. Indulgent, and today, my relief from reality. #PerthIsOk
But what makes it absolutely worth trying is the quality of it. Unlike in Singapore, where you sometimes pay $25 for a sad plate of brekkie, here you pay $25 and get a GREAT plate of brekkie - wherever you go! I've never had a breakfast done badly in Perth before. The price is actually worth the food! I ordered The Goose - full Aussie brekkie with the creamiest scrambled eggs, freshest slices of sourdough toast, juicy slices of bacon, fresh salad and a grilled tomato, crisp hashbrowns and a super generous tub of hollandaise sauce. Singapore really needs to learn from this place! Jihan had porridge - creamy oats topped with strawberries and with a side of rhubarb. I can't eat Asian porridge (i know, I'm a disgrace to my own race) but this creamy, warm, sweet and comforting pudding-like mix? I can.
Also, great music and great company help too. 📷: @bokkeroonie - cause I'm a safe driver okay. Anyways, muffin is a delicious peanut butter banana concoction from Muffin Break.
