My favourite restaurant

Cafe Issus is my favourite restaurant in Melbourne's Centre Place. The big breakfast is great, I especially like the "l.b.d.s" or tiny sausages to more polite folk, they're really tasty. The soups are excellent (which is often all that is left by the time I stagger down). The rate the food disappears down there you know I'm not the only person who thinks it's good. Check out this link for more info.

Repeat Business?

Something I'm still trying to get over from last year is a weird moment I had at the Centre Place, one of Melbourne's Meccas for laneway cafes and lattes galore. There is one shop I go regularly because they have great pastries and buns. This particular day I had ordered (and paid for) my flat white and croissant with ham. The proprietor came out and (seeing me scribbling in my note book) proceeded to try to hussle me from my seat. Don't these guys want repeat business? Lucky for him he sells great pies.
