The Plain

It was a Sunday and I was really excited to go to The Plain. And even more excited because The Star had absolutely no idea where we were going even though he's the one driving hahaha. When we were walking to Craig Road he was making wild intelligent guesses but nahhhh he didn't manage to get it right. It was a pretty long walk from the Pinnacle (we parked there) especially in that scorching hot weather.

Coffee drinkers make better lovers. Yes/no?

The interior was just like it's name, plain and simple, but with just enough decorations to not be dull.

They do not have an extensive selection of food or desserts but what they have will certainly delight you. All day breakfast for the early birds or the busy bees or the lazy sloths. All day breakfast is a winner.

My hot chocolate. Pretty average.

The Iced Latte with the pastrami ciabatta

The ciabatta was pretty good. Pretty filling and great for brunch. I felt that the ciabatta got a bit too tiresome to chew on after awhile though.

Half served Darling eggs. I love ham and cheese, so I loved this too. The sourdough toast went exceptionally well with the ham and cheese. Not forgetting the poached eggs. Eggs are a must-have for brunch! Especially poached ones.

Just look at the yolk oozing out... How can anyone not like poached eggs???

The cafe was pretty chill. And as expected on a sunday, all the tables were occupied but the cafe doesn't look at all packed. There were even people studying there. The cafe doesn't feel too crowded and you'll have your privacy for sure. I really dislike restaurants which make you sit so close to others that you guys are practically involved in everyone's conversations.

I probably will not return anytime soon. Despite the delightful selection they have on their menu, it just isn't enough for me to choose from. But yeah, it was definitely worth the visit.
