After sleepless red eye and dropping our luggage at the hotel(too early to check in), we just wanted to sit the fuck down for coffee and breakfast. After roaming around the hotel, we found the sign said "Coffee/Liquor/Laundry/Massage" - WTF!? At least, "Coffee" enticed us, we approached. There was a young man standing had welcoming aura and a pile of looking-delicious sandwiches, we went in.
Got myself Salami Pesto and Iced Long Black. Salami Pesto was toasted. Although Salami and Cheddar were the main thing in the sandwich, but I was soothed by the scent of olive oil(and oil itself) and dill weed.
Iced Long Black wasn't too acidic, the way I prefer for my coffee.
We dined in here and saw many regulars popping in to start their day. It showed a lot of sign of love and trust right there. Not the interactions I see in where I live - Tokyo.
Sandwich kicked ass and coffee gave me a new life after the sleepless red eye, it gave me a great start on Day 1 in Melbourne for sure. read more
