On the weekends, it is a chore to get up early. I am not a morning person and even for food I will find it hard to wake up. Little did I know, there was a close local breakfast restaurant near my place. Thanks to Ms D for introducing me to this breakie place. The location is tucked away in the suburbs and I assumed this place is dominated by locals. Despite its’ location, the restaurant was about 3/4 full.

Lovely Space

Coffee – Mr gave me a thumbs up on the coffee. In case you are wondering why it’s in a takeaway cup it was ordered in a large. No large cups for coffee

Whipped Avocado, ricotta, poached egg and sourdough $10. The $10 does not deceive you, it was really that cheap. I really love that the ricotta, avocado and egg matched perfectly. Just a little on the downside was that the egg was a little overcooked. Perhaps just by a minute but parts of the egg were still gooey!

Mr orders Portobello mushroom, goats cheese, poached egg and seeded sourdough $13. I love the mushroom in this but I admit that I prefer the avocado dish slightly more
The Foodrinkery is family friendly and at the time of our visit, many of the other customers were families with children. There were also tables at the front or in the backyard if you prefer to sit in the sun.
Merry Christmas everyone and hope you have a lovely new year

Woah, whipped avocado?! Never had that on toast but now I’m intrigued! Merry Christmas!
Late merry xmas Adrian sorry I missed this!
This breakfasts look awesome! It’s so good to have a place like it in your area. In Berlin it’s sometimes hard with breakfasts, especially looking like this ones.
aww you don’t get good breakie over there?
i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee oozing eggs. It makes me so happy. And the portobello mushroom has won me over. Merry Christmas babe xx
merry xmas (late) babe!
The takeaway coffee cup is a bit disappointing but everything looks good otherwise. I thought the portobello on the toast was a thick layer of Vegemite… yuck!
Now that you have mentioned I see it now lol
Dear Julie,
That gooey egg yolk looks so tempting but you look soooo cute in those little pigtails tucked in bed having a cat nap
Portobello mushroom LOVEEEE
Merry XMAS JULIE

Oh score! Another one for the East side
Looking forward to giving this a try since it is more down my end as well
Hope you had a lovely Christmas and a even better new year!
you are welcome. Please let me know how it goes
I really like the idea of whipped avo… It’s basically a creamy ingredient on its own and it’s so clever of them to take it a step further to whip it up, just like cream! Btw, sorry if it’s a bit late for me to say but I’m loving your new layout Juls… Let’s go for some awesome eating in the new year =D
yes please when you are back!
What a delish looking brekkie. The avo looks great!
YAY
So glad that you liked The Foodrinkery ~ and I agree that even though it’s tucked away hehe the locals sure know them well and it can be quite packed!
I love it though especially on week days when it’s so quiet and we can just do our work there without stressing or anything hehe
Love a good hidden gem! And that egg *drool*
The whipped avocado looks great! Still gooey
