The Grounds of Alexandria Review

Grounds has been popular online for a long time. The waiting time is at least half an hour every time. It is even more crowded on weekends, so it has always been highly anticipated by foodies. Probably because of the ongoing epidemic, the current menu seems to be relatively simplified, and the portion size seems to have shrunk slightly. "Baked Eggs" is worth recommending. The taste of chilli labneh mixed with chickpeas is really great. The sesame bread is baked and fragrant, and it is perfect when stuffed with chickpea yogurt sauce. "Frankie Omelette" omelette is really thick. The first bite can feel the taste of cheese mixed in the egg liquid. The cheese crumbs sprinkled on the omelette enhance the rich taste. It will feel a bit greasy when you eat halfway, so it is recommended to squeeze some lemon juice. "Big Aussie Brekkie" is a traditional big breakfast, but the portion and ingredients are not big at all [tongue-in-cheek] "Sesame Bagel" is really not very outstanding. In short, it is a chicken breast burger. The taste is average and the chicken is a bit burdensome to eat. "Freshly Cooked Pancakes" is OK. Pancakes with peach jam mixed with various plums and vanilla ice cream can be used as dessert after the meal. Now is the harvest season of zucchini, so it can be seen in several main dishes. I really don't recommend coffee. The quality of coffee beans is too low, and the sour taste is particularly unforgettable.

Check in at Sydney's popular restaurant │ The Grounds of Alexandria The Grounds is so famous that both locals and tourists come here to visit. It feels like there are always crowds of people here. Entering the Grounds is like coming to a mini town, a bit like Tianzifang in Shanghai, where there are restaurants, cafes, markets, gardens, kindergartens, and pig pens... There are flowers and plants everywhere☘️, and fountains⛲. At night, there are shining strings of lights, which are very suitable for taking pictures❗ After a round of walking, here is the overall evaluation~ The whole area is relatively mini, and many small shops are crowded together, which feels a bit cramped As a popular place, there are really too many people here. There are people in the background of any photo (and many suspected to be popular). The popular piglet said to be named Kevin... is really ugly So, my recommendation index cannot be more. It was meal time, and I found one of the restaurants called Potting Shed and sat down. At the recommendation of the waitress, I ordered their recently limited signature steak. The whole restaurant is full of pastoral style, with green plants everywhere, and I feel great sitting inside The steak came... It looks a little low, but the taste is really good, fresh and delicious, worthy of the price of 45.8 Australian dollars Detailed address: 7a/2 Huntley St, Alexandria NSW 2015 Transportation strategy: Uber or self-driving, enter The Grounds of Alexandria as the destination ⏰ Opening hours: The Grounds of Alexandria Cafe Monday to Friday 07:00-16:00 Saturday and Sunday 07:30-16:00 The Potting Shed (a complicated batch) Monday to Thursday 11:30-21:00 Friday 11:30-22:00 Saturday 11:00-22:00 Sunday 11:00-21:00 Tickets: Free entry to this area.

So it is recommended to make a reservation on the official website first.

It is a very happy place with many restaurants to choose from, mostly Western restaurants. There is a very unique flower shop inside, with many flowers that you can't see in the market. And there are animals to feed! Children have their own play area, which is very considerate. FYI: Try not to drive there, there are very few parking spaces and it requires skills! [Environment] Came to an infinitely large garden, where the local Australians live in their hometown.

This is a place that most tourists don't know about. It's a fashionable local landmark. I went there on a weekday morning, and there were already many locals having brunch. It should be even more crowded on weekends. It was sunny that day. So the grounds left me with a bright impression. The garden is beautiful, the food is delicious and not expensive, and the waiters are all pretty girls. If you are afraid of the heat, you can eat indoors. If you are not in a hurry, you can come here on a non-weekend morning to enjoy a brunch in the sun.

This is an atypical restaurant, like a garden, like a market, with lush flowers and trees in the courtyard, scattered donuts, ice cream carts, flower shops full of flowers, and a corner for children, with mascots a sheep and a pig. The restaurant is very popular, like a tourist attraction, it is best to make a reservation in advance, or order takeout, there are many seats in the courtyard, enjoy it outdoors. Personally, I think the food is not very outstanding, but "eating" is not the most important thing here!

The restaurant in The Grounds will never disappoint you. Although the food is average, the presentation is beautiful and the environment is elegant. It also adds a lot of extra points to the food itself. I was impressed by the puffs in the dessert.

I went to the famous local brunch shop, Grounds. I thought it was just a breakfast shop, but I found it was a commercial area with small vendors and a flower shop (reminds me of the concept of the flower kitchen downstairs in the company).
