4/5
Supposedly one of the trendiest places to be for brunch in Melbourne. The place is a sim with a chic decor with a refurbished power station as a backdrop. The food is not bad but it is slightly below expectations for me, given the raving reviews that everyone has been giving this place. The dark rye and chives waffle was the better dish among what we ordered. Chilli scrambled eggs had also a good kick to it with the spicy twist. Blueberry and ricotta hotcakes were not fluffy and soft enough but the taste of the toppings were good. Coffee was average for me. Try to go early or make reservations as the place filled up quickly given its popularity for a brunch spot for tourists or business people alike even for a weekday.

    This internet-famous coffee shop only accepts reservations. When I passed by, it seemed to be full at any time. If you didn't make a reservation in advance, you would not be allowed in. After checking in, I don't quite understand why it is so popular. 🍃Environment: The industrial style environment of the old power station is transformed. There are actually many similar styles in Melbourne; 🍭Taste: It is not particularly better than other well-known coffee shops. The ricotta hotcake is beautiful and has its own characteristics. The Benedict eggs and avocado toast are just good. 💁‍♂️Service: Although it is full, the waiter's care is still acceptable. The serving speed is not fast, but everything comes up as soon as it is served. It happens to be sitting next to the open kitchen, and I don't feel the smoky smell mentioned by netizens. Just experience it.

    Higher Ground | The restaurant converted from an old power plant exudes refinement and comfort from the moment you enter the door. It is so beautiful that it makes the food taste better and makes me willing to spend money here... round table, long table, bar counter, sofa upstairs, there is always a corner where you want to stay for an afternoon. After coming to Melbourne, I feel that it is different from what I imagined. This is what Melbourne looks like in my mind

    The brunch restaurant with good appearance and taste, no wonder a bunch of people lined up at the door, we went to take a half-hour weekend. The dishes are very foreign, the taste level is very rich, the picture above is recommended by local foodie friends. Net red cake and kale are both must-order!

    The network red restaurant remodeled by the power plant has a high floor height and looks like the whole layout is very layered. Mottled walls, natural lighting, green plants surround the tables and chairs, and the restaurant's environment is extremely personal. We went to eat brunch and needed to queue up, which took about half an hour to get there. I ordered the hot cake of the net red, not my favorite taste, no cheese, no cream, soft cake with subtle fruit flavor and nuts. The amount is very large, the appearance is also high, that is, I don't like to eat. cauliflower scramble also tastes average. Polenta is like rice paste, it looks good and not delicious. The sandwich-like things ordered by my friends are not bad. I can only say that the restaurant suitable for taking pictures is not suitable for heavy tastes like me.
