Well today marks the first brunchclub outing that our newest family member, JD Maher (that's not him in the picture incidentally), attended in person. The almost 5-month "hey Jude" with doting mummy &daddy in tow coped magnificently this morning especially as Sal, Brad, Tossie (returning Brunch club treasured guest) & I were particularly raucous with many of our comments being completely unprintable on this public space.
However, some printable highlights included discussions of Sal's Lib party function on Thurs night featuring a dialogue between a Rabbi & an Imam which segue wayed into a discussion of Islamic history, beliefs, the role of women & the question of scared texts amongst other topics. Brad was also still brimming with philosophical stimulation from the previous night's Sydney Inklings group. Especially, Chesterson's superb, prophetic 'Orthodoxy' text about the dangers of liberalism (little L)leading to the gagging of anyone being able to discuss any life purpose questions. Oh yeah & Brad had his usual rant against Facebook.
The cafe itself was better than we were led to believe on the web (can't trust those web critics -except us of course!!). Very good food in my humble opinion, I was very happy with my spinach, fetta & tomato omelette with bacon sides. Others were happy too though Brad's bacon, eggs & mushroom was forgotten about so Brad (not used to being forgotten) would probably agree with the web comments that service was not really flash.
Finally, we were exceptional on the quiz this morning almost attaining perfection just stumbling on one question the other name for whale bone (Baleen). Overall, a fun experience this June morn.
JUDE SAYS: "Mummy"
ANDREW SAYS: How cute is my nephew? Great fun 4 GOLDEN EGGS.
BRAD SAYS: No one leaves Baby in the corner! Awful service and very bland food. I really 'lucked out' with this one. 2 Golden (weel, more rather grey-looking) Eggs.
SAL SAYS:
NIGE/GEORGE SAYS: Very good food. And the rest of the patrons were probably happy too see us go. 4 out of 5
