Little Larder, New Farm


New Farm seems to be the place to go to for breakfast! Following my GPS, I drove past Cirque and Chouquette before reaching Little Larder. I am amazed looking at people queuing in both Cirque and Chouquette. Well, I am not surprised to see that there's already a line in Little Larder too. 


G and I waited for about 10 minutes before we got our seats. Unintentionally, I heard one of the worker said to a customer that he can make a booking in the future and don't have to wait in line that time. Maybe this is only for the regulars because she did not tell us this.


That morning, I opt for juice instead of coffee. I had coffee the previous night and could not sleep until late...


Watermelon, pineapple and mint juice - $5.50
I can definitely taste the watermelon and pineapple but not mint unless I chew the mint leaves. I should have ordered the coffee or smoothie, I guess.

Eggs benedict with smokes salmon and spinach $ 16
I haven't had eggs benedict for quite some time (few months maybe?) and quite miss it! Just trying the hollandaise sauce itself, it is runnier than other sauce I've tasted and quite salty. But, combining the sauce with other elements, it was pretty good. The eggs were poached perfectly and the bread is toasted to perfection with the right thickness! 


Pesto scrambled eggs served on sourdough with sausages
G ordered the pesto scrambled eggs. This must be a quite popular dish because most people I saw had this dish on their table. Hehe, I tried some of G's scrambled eggs and yup, I think it's pretty good. I can definitely taste the pesto flavoured eggs with hints of spring onions.

Skinny cappuccino
I had a sip of G's cappuccino and it's good. The downside is that, G prefers to have coffee together with the meal but the coffee arrived after she nearly finishes her pesto scrambled eggs.

The verdict:
  • cool and funky ambience
  • good food
  • good service

Newmarket Hotel

  Newmarket Hotel, Newmarket  Newmarket Hotel has been on our regular place to visit as it is quite a family friendly restaurant; and obviously quite close to home. It can get quite busy at times but as we usually dine when restaurants open (5 or 5.30pm) so it was not too bad. Parking is ample with the complex's undercover parking. What I love about Newmarket hotel is that they do have kid's meal and Grace always enjoy their chicken tenders. Yay! The kid's meal come with a drink (and the drink container can be brought home) and ice cream for dessert. No photo for her meal but we ordered it with steamed vegetables. If you are a seafood lover, give their calamari a go! They are beautifully crumbed and cooked just right. This is an entree size but you can upgrade to the main size. I tried their fish - special of the day; barramundi with some crispy pumpkin/potatoes and the 'sauce'. Honestly, I did not expect it, as this was more like a gravy sauce dish. The portion was...

Milk Cafe, Ashgrove

  Milk Cafe, Ashgrove Throwback to late last year when we visited Milk Cafe in Ashgrove. It is just adjacent to Woolworths Ashgrove and you will not miss it. Plenty of parking is available in the complex. Famous for its milkshake, we did not order any as we get quite apprehensive when the kids are so high in sugar 😅. I could not remember the exact dish we had that day but the first dish was poached eggs with bacon, and cripsy potatoes with addition of haloumi. Little M dislikes cheese but she will gobble up the haloumi in no time. We had the pancakes as well and they were fluffy and soft. The girls thankfully enjoyed them, as sometimes they can be picky with their food.  The indoor setting is reasonably large and there is outdoor setting as well. Bonus--> it is part of the Entertainment book's voucher. But ya, we will be back one day.  Breakfast at Milk Cafe

Toowoomba

The Journey to the West!  It took less than 2 hours to Toowoomba (largest non-capital inland city) from Brisbane. Together with AQ, we were on the way to visit MXM. The weather wasn't promising with the grey clouds on the horizon. Anyway, first pit-stop: Engine Room Cafe Once in Toowoomba, MXM took control of the wheel and brought us sight-seeing. The 'city' is tiny in comparison to Brisbane! To fill our hungry tummies, we had brunch in Engine Room Cafe, with a souvenir shop attached to it.  We ordered at the counter and had a skinny flat white. I think the coffee was OK, I wasn't really a big fan of it.  Flat White - $3.70 AQ had French toast. He wiped clean his plate. I'm assuming it's good. French Toast As for myself, I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Eggs Benedict - $15 Poached eggs, hollandaise sauce with mushrooms and toast It's definitely not the best Eggs Benedict that I had. The hollandaise sauce was too...
