~~~Affogato's Adventure~~~

There is a cafe just opposite where we stay in Essendon...
I love to frequent this cafe, as it has the widest and best selection of cakes that I have seen... despite Greco, and Brunetti... well, it's just at my doorstep... why bother going all the way to Greco or Brunetti right??

So, the other day I went there again, to see if they have nice affogato... yep, they do...
and different from the usual way of serving affogato, they serve it in a martini glass... the moment I saw the pretty waitress brought it out in front of me... my heart blossom!! :-)

Also, we ordered a piece of cheesecake... look so sinful but yet yummy!!!
if I were to die because of one sin (one sin only) then, it'll be because of CAKES!!! so irresistable...

This cafe is great, so far, I like it better than those in the city centre, in fact.
The owner, apparently is greek, and they are the most hardworking bunch of people I have seen in this city.
They start their business very early in the morning... and close at very late hour, late as for the standard in this country... ie. 11pm? ya... in the city centre, mind you, 7pm is like 12 midnight back home...
Yes they are the most hardworking people in this city... just a few months ago, they took over another shop lot just around the corner, and open a pizza express, THEN.. they took over another bigger corner lot, and order a stone grill cafe cum restaurant....
Hardworking people always earn my respect, whereas, not-hardworking people and yet like to complain how much work they have... I suggest you to go jump off the building!!!

Apparently I read it in the forum of Vogue Australia... Essendon gals are famous of their fashion, compare to other suburb, especially around Max's area... :-) see... I actually accidentally landed myself in the most IN place :-)
(if you do a search in google, Max's, essendon, you may find a search result which is one of the forum's topic, in Vogue Australia online)

If you do come by Essendon area, do take a sip of coffee there... :-D
