The Little Larder - 76 Moray Street, New Farm QLD 4005

The Little Larder is undeniably one of the most popular brunch cafes in Brisbane. With its reasonably priced brekies, friendly and cherry service, what is there not to like? And if you're lucky, you may get a surprise visit from Little Larder's favourite resident, Pumpkin (a cute chubby hen).


Although the menu is quite limited, it does have interesting additions including Beef Cheeks, Pulled Pork, Squid Salad. There's also cold fresh juices available for the health junkies.

Despite being an insanely hot day, we ordered Hot Chocolate ($3.9), Flat White ($3.9), and Chamomile Tea ($3.5).

The Hot Chocolate ($3.9) was fairly chocolatey but nothing too special when compared to Koko Black or Guylians or Lindt CafĂ©.

Similarly, the Flat White had a nice coffee flavour but was a tad too creamy.

The Chamomile Tea ($3.5) was pretty standard but it had a very fragrant chamomile flavour.

Feeling a little adventurous, I got the Savoury Cajun Spiced Beef Cheeks with poached egg and gruyere cheese toasted sourdough ($18). The beef cheeks weren't savoury enough, but the texture was amazing - it was juicy, tender and literally melted in your mouth. The egg was perfectly poached with a golden runny yolk.

My fellow Food Extinguisher got the Large Breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, chorizo, mushrooms, roasted tomato, spinach, potato rosti, and sourdough ($21). According to my partner-in-food, the eggs were perfectly scrambled and still had a soft texture, but unfortunately it was quite bland and lacked flavour. The bacon wasn't pan fried properly so it wasn't crispy or very flavoursome. I quite like the chorizos though.

Large Breakfast ($21) - at least it was quite L-A-R-G-E!

Verdict
Decent for the price. But don't visit on a hot summer's day because there's no aircon.
