Mondo Organics | 166 Hardgrave Road, WEST END QLD 4101
Recently,
I raised the issue of sustainable food with the other travel bunnie
and suggested going to Mondo Organics for breakfast one day.
Supporting
local growers and farmers, Mondo Organics focuses on the “real
food” experience and is dedicated to bringing its customers the
freshest and the most delicious organic produce. They have recently
released a new Spring menu, and given that they only open for
breakfast on the weekends, our Saturday breakfast venue was decided
without any hesitation.
Located
at the corner of Hardgrave and Loch in West End, Mondo Organics
somehow reminded us of a shady shack in the Caribbean with its chill
out music playing in the background. This restaurant is very baby
friendly with its roomy space, which is always a big bonus for us
these days.
As
the other travel bunnie was still recovering from a cold, he ordered an immunity boost ($8.50)
made with orange, lemon, carrot, ginger and turmeric. The juice was
delicious and intense! I had a few sips of it and I felt more alert
than I would after downing a cup of coffee. I decided to be a little
adventurous and had a salted bitter chocolate ganache
frappe ($8.50). To be honest, I
wasn't a fan of it. I was expecting a really rich, chocolatey drink
but instead I found it quite bland and watery.
The
food quickly arrived and the presentation was simple. Placed on a
wooden chopping board, the omelette with speck, potato,
green peas, bittersweet paprika and sourdough toast ($20)
was rustic and everything you would expect of a hearty brakfast plate.
My
brioche, homemade nutella, caramelised banana, vanilla ice
cream ($14) was delicious! The
brioche was perfectly crispy on the surface but soft in the middle,
the homemade nutella was thick and chocolatey just the way I like it.
Mondo Organics does this simple, classic breakfast dish perfectly.
Although
the prices are slightly higher than the average breakfast fare, I
feel it's worth it given the food is organic and in a small way, I
felt as thought I was supporting the sustainable food cycle.
Total
Bunnie Dollars Spent: $51.00
