The last strawberry goes on by hand. 🍓
Brioche, caramelised banana, chocolate drizzle, a scoop of vanilla — and then someone stands there placing fruit one piece at a time until it looks right.
Nobody would notice if they didn't. That's rather the point.

Built, not plated. 🍯
Crisp toasted sourdough, pickles and slaw, then the chicken goes on top and the berry relish goes over the lot — slowly, so it runs down the sides properly.
The kitchen does this one by hand every time. You can tell.

Green, then poured. 🍵
A matcha latte with the heart floated on top, an iced matcha over strawberry, and a flat white getting its art done properly — not stirred in, poured in.
If you've only ever ordered the one thing here, the green side of the menu is worth a look.

Twelve seconds, one Big Breakfast. 🔥
Flames up, eggs into the pan, folded while they're still soft. Then bacon, mushrooms, a grilled tomato, hash brown and beans on the side.
This is 6:30am, before most of Doreen is awake. It happens about forty times before lunch.

Eight seconds, start to finish. ☕
Fresh grind into the basket, tamped, locked in. Milk stretched properly — not boiled, not flat. Then poured slow enough to float the art on top.
That's every single cup. Not the ones we film, all of them.
If you've only ever had coffee handed to you through a window, this is what was happening on the other side of it.

Last Sunday of winter. 🌤️
Thick-cut haloumi, grilled till it's got proper char on it, with caramelised relish, crisp iceberg and red onion in a soft sesame bun. Salty, sweet, squeaky — the good kind of squeaky.
No meat required and nobody misses it. Bring whoever's still asleep on the couch.

Saturday morning, no alarm, no rush. 🍳
Our breakfast wrap — scrambled egg, greens and herbs folded into a warm tortilla, with a hash brown on the side because a Saturday earns a hash brown.
Easy to eat, easy to sit with, and it goes down beautifully with a flat white while you do absolutely nothing for an hour.
