Mellow Me
8/5 Australia Ave
Sydney Olympic Park, Sydney
The Olympic precinct has its share of eateries but it isn't overflowing with cafes. So if you're on the hunt here, Mellow Me is a place worth finding.
Our group of three had been trawling the area - searching for a cosy place to stop, caffeinate ourselves and refuel, when we stumbled on this place.
However it was coffee first - and their brew was a familiar one from The Grounds. We were off to a good start! They arrived quickly and were hot and tasty. We needed them so it certainly hit the spot for us all.
Sir ordered the Mellow Stack - possibly enticed by the presence of grilled haloumi. It had more than that though, with lemon avocado, organic quinoa, smoked tomato, two poached eggs, balsamic glaze on organic toast. It was a substantial meal with great flavours.
Cousin A went for the Signature Avocado - another big meal that had two soft poached eggs, lemon avocado, cherry tomato, feta cheese, fresh pomegranate, sprinkled za'ata on organic rye toast. It was another great combo and the subtle crunch of the za'ata added some great texture as well.
Mlady had the lighter Avocado on Toast. It was described as lemon avocado, mixed seeds, pumpkin seeds, cherry tomato and drizzled with balsamic glaze on organic rye toast. It looked stunning and she loved it.
If we'd had more of an appetite we would have tried some of the very appealing cronuts on offer. Maybe next time!
We arrived hungry and in need of fuel and left Mellow Me satisfied and replete. It was a place well worth visiting.
