It isnt signed outside very well as yet but its on the corner opposite the train station. You just grab a seat if there is one and if not, stoodge at the front until there is.
Some is seating on its own and there is a share table that runs down the middle of the room.
It took far too long to get our coffee but when it eventually came, they do make great skinny Latte's. It was great but I hate it being served in a glass, especially when coffee is actually meant to be served hot. Anyway, it wasnt hot was in this instance the glass didnt pose a problem.
The breakfast meals were great. I had mushrooms with fetta and rocket on Ciabatta. The mushrooms were perfectly cooked and they give you a small dish of (homemade I think) tomato relish. Reg had a Croque Monsieur. Not really like a french one, just a ham and cheese toasted sandwich. The cheese is meant to be on the top and should have Dijon mustard like the Paris one's we had. It was nice enough though.
Nice little neighbourhood cafe. Wish South of the river had something as good. Once they get the coffee;s going a bit faster - they've got the right idea for sure.

Red Cabbage - South Perth
Being Reg's special birthday I looked everywhere for a BYO that was a bit special. We wanted to take his birthday present special bottle with us. I found out Red Cabbage do BYO Tues-Thurs. Cost us a $10 corkage.
The meals were outstanding. Presentation was smart and my Beef check and tail pudding was the real deal. It came with a duck egg on top of a square chip pileup. Anyone who has cooked beef cheeks will really appreciate this meal as its fiddly and time consuming. Reg's Angus sirloin was med and cooked to perfection of how medium should be.
The wait person was quite nervous opening the 17yo bottle of red and took it away to get a bit of steady nerves and help we think. We'd chilled it to room temp so once it was decanted and sat for a bit, was perfect.
We finished with a cheese platter which we both agreed is one of the best we've ever had.
Red Cabbage take your Entertainment Card as well. I havent checked if they stamped it or not - but regardless we are going back with some mates who insist they want to try all these wonderful things.
