Jeremy's Bistro | 93 Albert Street, BRISBANE CBD QLD 4000
Now, most people (sane
people) probably wouldn’t go out for a big breakfast after having shared one
kilo of wagyu between two the night before. But we are crazy when it
comes to food. The morning after our dinner at Moo Moo, when the first rays of
the new rising sun appeared along the horizon, our body clock went off and we
became irrational and were desperately in need of more food. Well, okay maybe
I’m exaggerating a little. We were still full from last night’s dinner,
but I had my French class to attend and I doubted that I would stay motived
throughout the entire two hours without some bacon and/ or eggs.
My weekend class starts at 10am every Saturday,
which doesn’t really allow me too much spare time to have a nice and relaxing
breakfast. We opted for somewhere close to head to – Jeremy’s Bistro. We
had walked past Jeremy’s Bistro thousands of times and I had always been
attracted to its vintage chandelier and nostalgic décor.
The city was extremely quite in the early hours of
that Saturday morning. Jeremy’s had two tables occupied and some jazz
music was playing in the background. Our waiter was a well-dressed middle aged
man and the service that we received was extremely professional, which is rare
for breakfast as we often go to casual cafes where most of the wait staff are
hipsters.
It didn’t take us long to decide on the breakfast
options; herbed potato cakes with sliced leg ham, poached eggs and mustard
dressing ($17) for me and “posh” baked beans with sliced chorizo sausage,
roma tomatos and grilled crusty bread with melted cheese ($16.50) for the other
travel bunnie. And of course, a latte ($5) and a pot of Earl Grey ($5) to
go with our meals. I loved the vintage looking sugar bowl and creamer that came
with my tea (and yes, I took so many photos of them). I think all my
snapping almost freaked out the little children at the next table.
The Food was delicious. I was a little judgemental
when I first stepped into this restaurant because it’s not an extremely popular
breakfast spot and I thought that there must be a reason for it. But it
turned out that I was wrong. The herbed potato cakes were so flavoursome and
crispy on the outside. I wanted more even though my stomach kept saying no more
food…
I’m so glad that we finally tried Jeremy’s Bistro. I
enjoyed my experience so much that I almost don’t want to share this little gem
with you all. I mean, who wants crowds of people to contend with when they go
to breakfast. But yes – that would be selfish and even though there’s a certain
je ne sais quoi about its understated absence that I find so alluring, there
will always be a seat available for some tasty goodness.
Total Bunnie Dollars Spent: $43.50
