Ray

Last Sunday, a few of us (that being Jian Ming, Sherreen, Meisze, Charles, and I) decided to have an early outing for breakfast somewhere in Brunswick. But due to one of the Nokia handphones trying to be too smart and actually changing its clock back one hour thinking that it was the end of daylights saving already even though it was not (its actually today), we ended up being half an hour late.

Regardless, got there we did, by taking tram 19 up Elizabeth Street and then stopping somewhere (sorry, I wouldn't be able to find it again), and heading to this place called Ray.

It was a quaint old place, with plastered walls, and actually looked run-down, but I think that was part of its charm.

Most of us (except me) started off with some form of hot drink.

If I remembered correctly, this was a Flat White, whatever that means. And some of my other friends ordered Chai tea as well, although I did not take a picture of that. But you must admit that the leaf design looks really cool.

So for breakfast itself, I had this baked egg with some lamb(?) sausage thingy.

It looked really good and was quite well done as well. And the bread was absolutely warm and soft and fresh. If I have to say it, the dish was really well done. However, I wasn't too satisfied with it for some reason. It didn't really fulfill my eat-a-lot till full cravings. Some people might find it blasphemous, but I was more satisfied with what I ate this morning, which was 2 Kransky sausages bought from Safeway, fried in a pan, with some eggs (also fried simply in the pan), and 4 slices of multigrain bread.

And the rest of them had this muesli thingy. Didn't try this though.

And we also ordered some French Toast to share.

I didn't share this as well, but it looked unlike any French Toast that I've seen, and I'm fairly certain that, had I actually tried it, I would've been more satisfied than if I had made french toasts with the same multigrain bread that I have at home. But the bread of theirs is really good.

So, until next time, may everyone remember to set their clocks to the right time, at the right time.
