Elevenses

Walking into Elevenses, the new cafe by Thomas Ervin-Ward and Shanny Sena from Obscura (http://obscura.net.au), is like walking into someone's kitchen. It has a relaxed, unpretentious vibe, complete with a large round kitchen table. The staff are friendly and up for a chat, and greet regular customers warmly. I haven't eaten there yet (unless you count a fantastic piece of Mars Bar Slice!), but the vegetable soup and garlic toast they were serving today smelt fantastic. To be honest, the coffee is a little hit and miss. Somedays it is amazing, the first sip bringing joy to my heart and a smile to my face. But when it's not that good, it's still pretty damm fine.
