Sundays are made for brunch
with girlfriends. Whether it's a homemade brunch or taste testing the latest
Instagram-friendly location, brunch is the perfect excuse to catch up over
delicious food and great coffee. I took Sophie to a new spot on the Northcote
Road this week which I was really excited about having visited a few weeks
earlier.
Café Tamra is a newbie to SW’s
Toast Rack and although the branding is very misjudged (a Chihuahua adorns the
sign and inside there are more paintings of the mut), the food is excellent. The menu has flairs of Lebanese food and hints of Mexican; Sophie ordered the
avocado, chorizo and fried egg on sourdough whilst I went for the special of
cinnamon and orange French toast with banana, maple syrup and a good dollop of mascarpone.
Sophie’s eggs ran beautifully and my French toast was a real treat, not too
sweet or soggy.
We gossiped on with our coffees
before leaving the café in peace and heading on for a little interiors shopping
(Sophie is redoing a large part of her boyfriend’s flat and I am only too happy
to help!). A perfect start to a sunny Sunday.
