I thought I would take my Mum to Three Bags Full for
Mother’s Day as it is so highly recommended. Well not exactly Mother’s Day, we
usually celebrate Mother’s Day on the Saturday of the same weekend so that we
are not confined to set menus and booking weeks in advance... Anyway, I was
surprised to easily find a place to park my car, just down from the cafe. The
cafe looked very busy but we managed to get a place at the elevated communal
table. I was a little alarmed at first as I’ve never been a fan of communal
tables but actually I found it rather enjoyable. Catching little snippets of people’s
conversations was interesting and of course I got to see what other people were
ordering... Plus, the tall stools we sat on were really quite comfortable. The
cafe has seating out the front and the interior was sectioned into rooms and once
you got used to the high noise level, it made for a pleasurable atmosphere. The
service was brilliant, especially considering the size of the cafe. We received
our menu and everything looked really enticing. Breakfast
is served all day which is great. I eventually decided on the Twice baked French toast with crème
patissiere, stewed rhubarb, and almonds
($16.50). This was so delicious! Nice to see rhubarb used instead of berries,
which seems to be your average cafe’s regular standby. The crunch of the French
toast and the almonds complemented the silky texture of the crème patissiere
and soft rhubarb. I suggested to my Mum to
try the Beetroot cured salmon with
pea, feta and corn fritter, avocado, rocket, dill sour cream and lemon ($17.00)
as this would definitely have been my second choice. She did and she absolutely
loved it! The quality of food here is exceptional. Our
lattes ($3.70) arrived and they were so good! Even my Mum who isn’t a huge
coffee drinker could have ordered a couple more coffees. I wish I lived closer
to this cafe as I would be coming here all the time...
