Kitchen By Mike

About a month ago, we took ourselves out on our usual Saturday journey around this great City, and decided to pop on through to Kitchen By Mike to see what all the hype had been about in recent weeks.  Rosebery is quite the eclectic suburb, just waiting for it's moment to throw off its rags and truly shine.  Kitchen By Mike is a little gem hidden amongst the industrial garments, and stepping into this faceless building feels like you are walking into a world that only Alice in Wonderland could discover. 
The queues are ridiculous, but if you can persevere you will be pleasantly surprised to treats that will take you back to the days of being in school and waiting for food that teases you and warms the spirit. 
The coffee here is delightful, by the way, and the barista on the day had the most uplifting of spirits...Thank you for making us laugh!
Here's a little visual odyssey of this place:


Even though it's later in the day, this place was still heaving with people

I absolutely love the raw nature of the interior.

Even indoors, it's so cold here in Sydney that we need that extra warmth

This is where the coffee magic happens

Food being freshly prepared for the canteen style cafe

It's Mike's, and it's sour

Our delicious dishes

And let's not forget the star performer, that delicious brioche with prune slice.  so so good.
yes, that coffee

Be sustainable

simple


For when the weather blesses us with warmth
And let's not forget this little fella, which sat patiently outside.

Revolver

Be the rabbit in this hat and surprise me with your promises that echo out of this revolving world of resistance.
Everything here is running out of time as we run towards something which is far out of mind.
And in the distance, that train hurtling forwards screams like a ghost train of memories, fighting to not be forgotten.
Call onto us from your merry-go-round and evolve us from this inertia.
