Salt Food Wine Coffee @ Rosalie, Brisbane

The suburb Rosalie lies very close to the heart, a place that we frequent for breakfast and our dosage of sugar. Not to mention, the rather expensive butcher and gourmet mart too. It's been weeks since the floods and we heard wind that the suburb that was once flooded 1.5 metres from the ground is up and running again, so we headed there with enthusiasm.


Flute which we visited once was closed the week that we were there, although when we were around the corner last week, I am happy to say it is up and running again too.


So Salt is was, which has a similar concept to their neighbour Flute; big portion breakfasts with a slight premium, with meals starting from AUD18-22. 

Iced coffee for the hot day but this comes with ice-cream making it a very sweet caffeine dosage.

As you can see, the portions are huge and for small eaters, this should last you the whole day. Just look at the amount of mushrooms served with truffle oil, it was heavenly with some egg yolk from the poached eggs. The only problem is that the eggs are poached in a mold, rendering it slightly harder than it should be. 

If you have left over roast beef, may this be inspiration for your next breakfast. Served inside a huge omelette with cheese and served with jus, this apparently kept my friend full for the whole day whereas i enjoyed every bit of the dish.

Haloumi cheese for you maybe?

The safer options like smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce is also available. 

The mushrooms were so good that we had an extra order to share around.

There is something about the area; the peace and serenity i suppose that lures us over the area, or it could be that we can't resist a slice of cake at Welsh Lady which is a compulsory stop after breakfast.

Address and contact details:

Verdict: 4 stars out of 5 stars. You pay a bit more but you don't have to worry about having to order poached eggs as a side or any other items as a side because they make sure the plate has enough components to satisfy any appetite.
