Last Thursday I commuted to work for the very last time. Yes the cross city tunnel will no longer be on my daily radar. To celebrate I booked in for a last inner west breakfast with my lovely creative friend, Laura – soon-to-be-fellow-self-published cookbook author.

We met last year when we both took a class on marketing your book so whenever we get together there is never a shortage of animated conversation. I always come away feeling energised and inspired. And with a nutritious and delicious breakfast under my belt I couldn’t think of a better way to start the day.

I have a feeling I’ll be finding excuses to venture to the inner west even though my office is now at home on the east side.

loved

the ecclectic decor
the care taken by the service and attention to detail – offered to remake a chai latte because he could see it was too strong just by the colour
the leafy suburban location
the beautiful china tea cups
an egg timer is served with your tea if you need these things timed to precision
well balanced menu of cafe standards with a few fun and interesting twists
the yoghurt
the avocado served with a dollup of pesto in the hole left by the seed

didn’t love

that I had to go through the cross city tunnel to get there

ate

natural muesli with vanilla yoghurt (gelatin free) and poached blueberries
scrambelled eggs with spinach & feta & avocado

drank

english breakfast tea
soy chai latte

value

great about $30 for 2 for breakfast

reservations

none taken – but no problems during the week

perfect for

an energising breakfast catchup
am keen to try it out for lunch as well

Hey Jules, we just had an early lunch here today and loved it.
Lunch was delicious (i had the tuna and roast veggie salad) but I especially loved the eclectic mis-match of the decor. It may become a Team Kampai regular :-)
