Two Birds One Stone (South Yarra)

Just a few minutes walk from South Yarra station lies a cute little cafe called Two Birds One Stone. So the name itself opens up a warm welcome. Once inside, you're greeted with excellent service and surrounded by a buzzing atmosphere of coffee lovers.



My friend Liam and I were seated on one of the bigger benches, which I thought was cute because there was a plant pot in the middle of the table. The only con I thought about the seating was that the lighting was not going to do any justice for the photo, so I had politely asked to move to the spare seats by the window with the nice natural lighting. (sorry)































So Liam had ordered the Eggs Benedict: House Smoked Ham Hock and Bernaise on Toast; because he's the type of person that only orders the simples or more so the 'classics'. On the other hand, I had ordered the Ricotta Hotcakes with Fresh Figs, Pistachios, Vanilla Cream and Canadian Maple Syrup. For an Eggs Benedict, it was definitely different. (I reckon it was the smoked ham hock).

For Liam, they were too many different flavours for him to handle, but he still enjoyed it. I think the Bernaise added some zing to the dish, which is usually it's job in a typical eggs benedict.

And for the hotcakes, the presentation was a solid 10/10. The hotcakes were fluffy and all the flavours had really complimented each other. You can't go wrong with the hotcakes, so that is a definite recommendation.

Two Birds One Stone is definitely a well-known cafe and I can see why. In a convenient location with good vibes, good food, good service; you really can't go wrong.

On a side note, I am currently on school holidays so I guess there will be more frequent updates on this blog! School's gotten busy lately so I have been lacking the effort with this. BUT don't you worry, more posts coming soon!

Adventure awaits,
Love Mich xx
