Happy Sunday =)

How's everybody's Sunday? Hope you all had a good weekend =) We wanna eat out for brunch today so we went to city for The Grain Store at Flinders Lane. They are currently at the no.1 place in Urbanspoon's talk-of-the-town list so we were tempted to check it out.

'Enjoy our table of inspiration'

Clean and simple decorated interior


Waiting for our foooooood~!

*special menu* French Toast - Buttermilk french toast with cold spiced nashi pear and candied pecan

Bacon Steak & Smoky New Season Borlotti Beans with eggs sunny sided up, whipped goat's feta, vincotto

Its quite sad to say that we were a little disappointed especially when we were heading to the place with the high 'talk-of-the-town' expectation. And when we say its disappointing, its not because the food is terrible or something. To be fair to The Grain Store, the quality of the food we ordered was good but their menu/cooking style/cooking culture somehow just doesn't suit both our taste and likings. 

After brunch, we had to stay in the city to pass some things to Mr's cousin. Both of us were craving for an after-meal dessert so Mr suggested La Petite Gateau but unfortunately it was closed on a Sunday so we changed our plan and head towards Melbourne Central. We walked passed La Belle Miette and nothing can stop Ms from going into the shop to get the best macaroons in town!

It was very windy on the outside so we stayed in Melbourne Central to kill time, we scout around the building for some sweet tooth to fix our cravings but nothing seems to be satisfying as our thoughts was all about Brownie and Passionfruit Chocolate Gateau from La Petite Gateau. End up we sat down in Theobroma Chocolate Lounge for some chocolates.

As for dinner, we came home and boiled corn soup with pork bones and carrots add some red dates, scallops and wolf berries. As weekends are the days where we are allowed to indulge in everything sweet and fattening, we ended our night with Magnum's honeycomb ice cream accompanied by running man(the funniest tv show on earth)! A sunday well spent =) Goodnight people and have a nice week ahead~!
