You read my mind.

But if you start a new thread, there’s a load of responses that the subject was covered previously and include the link. My guess is the newbie look for other reviews and found this one.

i would say the food wasn’t that bad but the service was aweful. i had to wait far too long and didn’t get treated how any person should be treated. a little equal customer service would be nice and some manners, no matter what you look like what you wear or what colour or race you are.

maybe you got surved by someone else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was disgusted at the owner and staff members that were working on the 16/5/10. As I entered the cafe I noticed it was busy, but not excessively so. I stood with a friend of mine, waiting to get a table for two. As we stood there, the cashiers continued to serve people lined up behind us, who were paying for their meals. He did not once look at us. We waited patiently for 10 minutes whilst he kept calling people from behind us forward to pay. I can not belive how disgusting this ‘service’ was. Once he had finished serving all the customers, he went on to make coffee, continuing to ignore us. We waited 15 minutes all up and still got no attention. After this time I became fed up and walked away. I do not look like someone off the street, I was a paying customer and he did not look at me once to ask what i was after. I was apalled at the staff members manners and services. I have to wonder whether my ethnicity was a problem for them.

And you call yourself ‘a brown aussie’ sure you are not trying to sling some mud.

I have only had positive experieinces there even at a dinner party with some *gasp* ethnic looking people.

And their seafood chowder is fantastic, best I’ve tasted! That was just over a year ago though, so don’t know if they still do it…

poached eggs,.. fresh organic eggs slid into barely simmering water with a bit of white wine vinegar (i find bubbles tend to break up even the freshest egg whites). trial an error for how long you leave them in although i go for about 5-6 mins and get a consistently good result. Firm egg whites and the yolk is only just starting to set on the very outside.

…I still get a certain glow on the inside making restaraunt grade eggs benny and espresso …

OK – Group BREAKFAST at Danman’s place this Saturday – who’s in? 😀
