March 28, 2018 Breakfast at Sweet Cheeks

It’s no secret that I love the biscuits at Sweet Cheeks – and oooh that honey butter makes my heart skip a beat. They recently introduced breakfast into their repertoire – choose from a pork belly, egg and cheese for $8, a sausage, egg and cheese for $8 or just  an egg and cheese for […]

January 6, 2018 Coppa

I hadn’t been to Coppa in a long, long time – so when Leah invited me out to Coppa for lunch with a Gilt City voucher, I gladly accepted. Sometimes you can really hit it right with these vouchers, but you have to look at what the menu has to offer before you should decide […]

January 4, 2018 Industry Lunch at Menton

This freezing cold weather has me counting down the days until spring. It reminded me of this visit to Menton for their industry lunch with Leah, when (clearly) the weather was much nicer.

The team behind this new hot spot are Jody Adams, Eric Papachristos and Sean Griffing (they are also the team behind Trade).
