Have been hanging out to try this kid-friendly spot and it was definitely worth the wait. Had the homemade sourdough waffles and they were delicious! Think light fluffy and not sickly sweet, topped with a good balance of stewed pears and berries, with the crunch of toasted coconut flakes! Just divine! Others had the salmon and Tunisian eggs and that was also good. It sure is a kid friendly spot that really caters for children.
