I strongly pondered writing this review. Especially since we have had nothing but great experiences everytime we go here. This time was not great. In fact, it was terrible.
So here goes......
5 tables that arrived after us, received their food before us. When pur meals finally arrived, my pork belly was burnt (and at the same time parts of the crackling were like rubber), the meat was over cooked on the edges (unedible) and half of the roast vege chips were burnt beyond recognition.
Now even though they did give us a buy one get one free voucher for the terrible experience, I am not overly pleased. The meal was disgusting.
I know it's a new chef, but I think they need to reconsider who they have in their kitchen, so as not to destroy their wonderful reputation.
We have been making some changes lately. One of these changes is listening to our work colleagues about eating habits. She promotes this to all of our patients and I have just been concerned that I wouldn't cope with the change. Not that we eat junk food, but I do love going out for breakfast and coffee.
So today, without hubby, I went to this place at North Lakes. I asked to have a brekky as close to my normal choice as possible and completely paleo.
I got an iced coffee, eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and a treat (that I was going to take away but it came on a plate....... so I just had to eat it. You know how it is?)
All I can say is.......I want the recipe book. If all of this can taste this incredible without milk, then my fears have just been squashed. I'm in. ...read more
So fantastic, what a great experience. I was happy to learn everything I could when I walked in, and ended up walking away from here with answers and a recipe book. I agree with the paleo theory for a number of reasons, to understand the lifestyle that comes with it, I recommend looking at their site.
I am a huge fan of elixir grind, you can still get your regular milk in your coffee here. If you're lucky to be served by the right staff member, you'll get a hibiscus flower on top.
Juices aren't made form concentrates, you'll actually feel good, not sugar-hit-sick from these juices. All fruits are stored fresh, not frozen. And if not for a meal, I recommend you pop in for a take away drink and meander back to the North Lakes shops to carry on with your day.
