Collingwood must be very pleased to have the inclusion of Proud Mary to the growing list good cafes and restaurants. It seems to be an explosion of new coffee places opening every week. Cafes with roasters, cafes with expensive Synesso coffee machines, once a day cupping sessions and the list goes on. Coffee drinking has always been popular but now it is trendy. But how much do we know about it? Is it a novelty and I guess only the strongest will survive.

Renovation is almost done. It is just the bathroom rails and replacing the window in the dining area. We have moved back and is living quite shabbily but at least all 3 of us are home. Nothing beats home! Home Sweet Home. Coffee to me is something that I need when half a eye is opened to a new day. It never really meant anything more than a stimulant. But after I started this food blog and being exposed to new things and friends, I am beginning to appreciate the humble coffee bean. I am still no expert and there is so much to read, learn and drink! I like the fitout at Market Lane. It has a very spacious set up and one could smell the aromatic coffee beans in the air. This place only serves a small selection of pastries, cakes and bread and home-made jam. So do not expect any other foods and not for anyone that has a big appetite and looking for a decent meal. It is all about the coffee here. Living across the river has its perks and one of which is that there are heaps of lovely cafes around. When I tweeted that I needed suggestions of good places around the South Yarra station, a few tweeps suggested the obvious – Outpost. The Outpost was one of the extended arms of St. Ali so we expected not good but great coffee. We love the open space, the coffee machine, the kitchen stations and the menu written on big butcher paper and stuck on walls. No partitions or barriers.  |
