Breakfast at Giraffe (restaurant chain across the UK)

http://www.giraffe.net/classic/menu/breakfast

Another successful start to a Saturday morning in February 2012, with my 'breakfast buddy' after my winter holiday blues. Giraffe is a chain of restaurants in the UK that has a very fun and casual style of menu. The perfect place for a relaxed, family meal; not too pricey and a very friendly atmosphere. Just the perfect place to cheer me up! :)

For breakfast, I chose to try:

Brioche French Toast - with apple compote, greek yoghurt, strawberries & maple syrup

Not overly sweet, perfectly made and very satisfying and tasty indeed!

My favourite menu at Giraffe is the Breakfast/Brunch menu. Maybe try it for yourselves this weekend and let me know how it was? :) You will not be disappointed!

'Til next time...

Bon appétit! xx :)

Workshop Coffee Co., Clerkenwell, London

Good morning readers!

2 weekends ago, it had been 4 years since I had seen my dear, Parisian friend who also loves breakfast, just like me, so I took her out to try this fabulous café-cum-restaurant in Clerkenwell, Farringdon.

Initially known as St Ali, another one of my loveable friends from Melbourne, whom I had met while I was out in Australia travelling for 5 months in 2010, recommended the restaurant to me when she came to visit me in London last year. It was a sister branch from the same city and has since been rebranded to Workshop Coffee Co. and it still has a definitive, Melbournian feel to it.

Melbourne is well known for it’s café culture and this has certainly been ‘exported’ to London so aptly that you feel like you are back there in Oz, enjoying this culture the Melbournians have made their own.

For brunch, there are a variety of amazing options and I chose to go for the ‘Brioche French toast, poached English rhubarb and blood orange mascarpone’ topped off with a poached egg. Highly satisfying, filling and most importantly, delicious. The place is also renowned for its' flat whites. Sincerely recommend this place!



Go try and let me know how it was! Bon appetit! xx
