Remy's (The Rogue Rennard) | 106A Latrobe Terrace, PADDINGTON QLD 4064
So
the leafy streets of Paddington have long been a favourite of the
other travel bunnie and I when it comes to grabbing breakfasts on the
weekend. There is just something relaxing about jumping into the car
and driving out of the city a short distance into this cultural and
quirky suburb. The café on our list of places to try was the Remy's
(formerly known as The Rogue Rennard). We had seen in a number of
times while driving by on Latrobe Terrace and given the sun was
shining last Sunday, we decided to give it a go.
This
indoor/outdoor establishment is located in a converted Queenslander
which is perched on corner on the high side of Latrobe Terrace. Upon
arriving we were greeted by one of the waiters who sat us in the
front, outdoor area of the café and advised us that they had
recently been rebranded Remy's (from The Rogue Rennard) and that the
only other substantial change was that they were now using counter
service. I was relieved that the menu hadn’t changed significantly
as I had already checked out what I wanted to eat and was set on
getting it. I ordered the Brioche
w' strawberries, maple, vanilla pod ice cream and white chocolate
($13)
while the other bunnie decided on the Thick
cut bacon, two poached eggs, rocket & relish on sourdough ($14).
Both dishes came out fast and I have to say from the outset that I
was impressed with the portions given the prices. My brioche was
really well prepared (the right balance of doughiness and crunch) and
the vanilla bean ice cream was the perfect constancy (just oozing
into the brioche). Importantly, the dish was not too sweet and I
found it a great kick start to the day with my latte
($3.80).
The other travel bunnie was equally impressed with seeing two thick
cut pieces of quality bacon, nice, yellow, gooey eggs and some damn
tasty tomato relish. He said the dish was just the right amount for a
wholesome breakfast and I tend to believe him given he didn’t even
want to try my dish. He washed his meal down with a pleasant (if not
a little too sweet) glass of cloudy apple juice ($3.50).
All
in all, Remy's (the Rogue Rennard) is a mouthful to pronounce and
equally a tasty mouthful for a breakfast. This is just another great
addition to the list of quality breakfast places to get to in
Paddington.
