right before some pottery 
painting in summer hill(i know its girly) 
what better occasion to enjoy a nearby 
late lunch at a popular hipster cafe 
even arriving after 2pm, this 
place is still quite packed on
a saturday arvo

however, seats are empty
right in front of the kitchen...

an order of crinkle cut chips 
came out being a really large bowl 
so much potato in this one! 
i like eating the smaller pieces 
which tend to be more crunchy 
(hence why i  prefer chips over wedges)

Pork Hash (they have a smoked salmon option) -

yummy poached egg with seasoning 
tasty pork hock meat 
fresh herb vegetables 
lots and lots of potatoes

would have preferred 
more pork ratio over potato...

Cheese Burger with fried spuds 

I mentioned i liked hot chips over wedges 
but these wedges are super crunchy 
just how i like them 

the burger is packed with 
a thick beef paddy 
(possible could have 
done with more flavour, but i guess 
this is more healthy?)
and more than enough gruyere cheese 

better than a grilld 
not as good as stitch or chur burger...
