WHAT WE ATE...

I chose the 'Homemade Crumpets and Lemon Curd served with coconut custard, cashew crumble, strawberries and fresh honeycomb ($16.50)'. What a scrumptious dish! The lemon curd added a piquancy that was balanced with the voluptuous coconut crumble. The gorgeous snapdragon blooms added further visual delight.  

My dining companion opted for the 'Acai Bowl - granola, homemade coconut yoghurt, Indian gooseberry jelly, peanut butter and banana ($16.00)'. This warm granola was absolutely moreish and was enhanced by the gooseberry jelly and rich peanut butter... 

WHAT WE DRANK...

We both ordered lattes ($3.80) made with Niccolo's house blend...
