‘The Upper Class in Kippax…’ I suppose everything is relative.

PoETix! This is your second snobby post in a fortnight. What has come over you, proud member of the working classes and not an arriviste despite living in the leafy inner north?

It was just the name, guv. Just asking’ for it, it wos. Wot’s an arriviste? Is that wot the rich folk do at them ‘hairports’?

Word on the street is that ‘The Upper Class’ in Kippax is considering its name to ‘The Aspirational Middle Class’.

Askin’. I can’t even let mistakes go when they happen in a deliberately semi-literate sentence.

Sounds like their coffee is possibly better than their food and their service. One out of three ain’t gonna cut it though.

You go there to share fairytales, and stare at the beautiful women.

She’s looking at you, oh no… she’s looking at me.

Fair dinkum these reviews are lame!!

I thought given the tasting notes and apparently exclusive consumption of milk based coffees that they were meant to be perodic. You know, taking the piss out of culinary reviews that take themselves too seriously.

I don’t mind them. Useful to know places to avoid. I’m not sure what your point is about coffee with milk – time and a place for it, I think. And ‘parodic’.

“On this night a sound system plays “Tilly’s” style music.”

They usually play cool or west coast style jazz at Tilly’s, or relaxed modern styles derived from that origin. Was it jazz?

Whaaaa? The most-often played track at Tilleys is the Andrews Sisters’ Boogey Woogey Bugle Boys. They play out-of-copyright music and nothing Australian or contemporary – presumably to avoid paying artists’ fees.

A year to get your coffee? I bet Gloria Jeans in Quangers can beat that. They’re amazing. and I don’t even get coffee from them (sure it’ll be a milkshake), that’s just for the mango slushies. I have never seen such slow drink service, anywhere, any time. They suck! There’s a business opportunity at Riverside.

The Upper Class in Kippax Fair serves the best coffee in town. Hipster free.
