The menu had a slightly Spanish feel, with mentions of chorizo, guacamole, chilli and salsa. There was also the interesting-sounding organic mochi waffle made from organic sweet brown rice - apparently a symbol of purity and strength.
The look was super hip as we walked through the interior space checking out the T-shirts, caps, posters and other interesting bits and bobs for sale on the way through to the sunny courtyard (definitely the place to sit if you can score a table).
The food was generous and tasty, especially when we added some of our favourite extras like guacamole and hot sauce. My breakfast taco ($18) came with three corn pockets, packed with pulled pork shoulder, scrambled eggs, tomato salsa and wood-fired sauce. My dining companion was very happy eating his free-range poached eggs with chorizo and wood-fired portobello mushroom ($18).
The coffee was fine, but lattes are getting pricey these days ($4.50).
