Brings back memories of first year, coffee during the lecture break from the pizza shop on campus. Scalding hot! Scorched grounds, drinkable only with two sugars. <br /><br />I've only been to the Premises once but they did a smoker kipper on white bean mash special and my partner had a pulled pork baguette.

I've heard some good things but friends have also mentioned issues with the service. <br /><br />I'm still willing to give it another go but still a little tainted from the experience when there are so many other great cafes to try out.Adrian (Food Rehab)http://foodrehab.com.au/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-30992351226215235032011-06-30T17:50:33.358+10:002011-06-30T17:50:33.358+10:00I went there last week and tried the pulled pork, ...I went there last week and tried the pulled pork, served with spiced apple and coleslaw...

I don't know their name - I call them "the boys" because its run by two cheeky Turkish brothers. <br /><br />I prefer their sit in dishes to the kebabs. The decor ain't pretty and the entertainment is Turkish TV but the plates - especially with the skewers of chicken and lamb - are piled high with salads and dips and come with a basket of bread. I used to delight in exercising really hard at Fitness Kick and then filling up from "the boys".

Very very good. Makes you think is there anything that Haloumi doesn't go with?<br /><br />Other great breakfast options in Kensington (both on Racecourse rd): Verb cafe, and Kitchen - the baked eggs there are particularly awesome, served with two crunchy daggers of turkish bread.<br /><br />Oh yeah, and the Kebab place on Racecourse next to the ANZ (forget the name) does some of the best kebabs in town, as well as killer Turkish pizzas. Do yourself a favour and check it out.Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-14783392587053061492011-06-30T09:39:34.934+10:002011-06-30T09:39:34.934+10:00Mmmm seven seeds blend?

I'm so there!<br /><br />Haha my coffee journey has evolved from a condensed milk laden Kopi Peng (iced coffee) at Sg kopitiams, to the flat whites of today's trendy cafes. Will I end up downing Espressos in the near future? *gasp*<br /><br />Mmm love the classic bacon and eggs brunch option, yours looked yummy.

While there are two butchers on Racecourse Road, the other is Halal and does not sell bacon. Mario and Charlie run an old school butchery and make their own sausages, bacon and ham. They also have a side line in some Maltese treats.
