The pistachio bread was nice! But it tasted more like a lemon loaf rather than pistachio? The sides were nicely caramelised and crunchy with dense and moist insides. The fresh mint leaves were definitely a nice touch to this dish!
Hmmm... I think the balance of this dish was slightly off. Each part separately was quite nice but there was an overwhelming amount of pork compared to the almost pathetic amount of corn fritters. The flavouring and texture of the corn fritters were good though! Fried eggs were a little burnt for my liking and I would've preferred poached rather than fries with this dish... Also, the pork wasn't interchangeable with any vegetarian option which was a shame... In fact the vegetarian dishes were almost non-existent which I thought was unusual at this day and age!! I think it could just be due to the different crowd that goes to this cafe.
Poached eggs on sourdough w/ homemade butter and leek & cheddar croquettes. Everything was ok but quite boring, would have wanted the croquettes to be more cheesy. Menu was pretty limited, specially for vegetarians (4/10).
Really nice chai, robust in taste but slightly on the sweet side (8.5/10).
