After looking at Curtin House, have a meal at Soul Cafe. Try the menu of Australian cuisine at this cafe. A lot of people point out that waiters serve nicely cooked scrambled eggs, sandwiches and poached eggs here. Nothing can be better than tasting good buttermilk pancakes, biscuits and croissants. Order the great latte, hot chocolate or iced coffee offered here.

It's easy to find Soul Cafe due to its convenient location. The cool staff at this place can demonstrate how much they appreciate their visitors. The nice service is something these restaurateurs care about. Attractive prices are to be expected at this spot. When inside, the atmosphere is calm. But many guests who use Google didn't give this cafe a high rating.

It is very wet and somewhat cold outside even though it is Saturday the 2nd of December. Melbourne summer, folks! I was hungry and had an hour to burn until my train. I saw very few cafes open until Soul Cafe's lights and outside chairs/tables indicated openness. I crossed over and scoped out their menu. Interesting, they seem to have an all-day menu! I liked the look of the Big Breakfast Special (with a coffee and a juice). However I didn't want to get sucker-punched by the first place I had seen. I had a look in. Busy. Vibrant. And two guys up front seemed to be making food fresh. That had me sold. So I took a seat then ordered at the counter, as is required. My juice came out then about 7, 10 minutes later, the coffee (flat white) and the breakfast. For $30 it is a suitably sized meal: 2 eggs, some green decorations, 1 toast, 2 hash browns, 2 chipolatas, ½ tom, 1 lrg mushroom. The thing for me is that only the hash browns were hot. Everything else must have come from a bain marie. It was warm at best. I was dishearted by that. This is not a criticism of using bain maries. They're fine. It's more about food/temperature management. Like, I have a temperature "gun" in my kitchen and you can check surface temps really well. Sorry to rabbit on but just warm is also not hot, yknow? The coffee too was frothy (flat white) and lukewarm. Isn't coffee by law meant to be 63°? It's better hot anyway, to be savoured. Not drinkable in one slurp. I'm hard on this because coffee is expensive per proportional serving ($/litre). So, yeh, overall my meal was... ok. Service was good. Venue is actually nice. Gamblers sadly shuffling in is a bit sad but ehhhrrr it is what it is (venue is linked by an open corridor to a bar with pokies). Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: A$20–40 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
