It’s not often that it rains for days in Sydney. It’s regular in my hometown of Vancouver, but I think the two week stretch (at least) of drizzle and rain and a few really heavy downpours in October made the city a bit stir-crazy. At least I was going stir-crazy. So, arriving at my hairdressers too early, in the rain, and finding mysteriously that at 3pm, all the cafes in the neighbourhood seemed to be shut down. Well, that is a bummer. Luckily, Cafe Banter was there to save the day with a paleo lemon slice (light and creamy, very nice) and a very acceptable latte with above average latte art.
I had the burger and chips with extra hauling and smoked salmon. The shoestring chips were perfect with the meal. The salmon was good. The haluomi was beautiful. The one thing that I didn’t like was the hashbrown in the burger. It was too oily. And the aioli sauce was a bit too much. Other than that it is delicious.
Had that day's blackboard special a home made pasta with seafood and chilli spice. Really liked it. The coffee is nice enough to be my go to place for a quick one to go. Service is friendly. Doesn't pretend to be a culinary spectacular, just reasonable price tasty freshly prepared food, I.E. no bain marie.
