ALL HAPPINESS DEPENDS ON A LEISURELY BREAKFAST - JOHN GUNTHER.

I'm not really a breakfast person. As in I'll rather sleep in more, wrapped in the warmth of my blankets than to get up and make breakfast. Well, it's kind of meh to make breakfast for yourself right? Really, just give me a cup of coffee in the morning and I'll function. If you know me, than you will know that I need coffee. It's not a want but a need. Coffee to me is the elixir of life. Still, I enjoy finding really interesting places to go to, those cafes and restaurants that have their own characters. 

This might be random, to me the ultimate happiness will be having someone to go to these places with and wouldn't mind waking up at an ungodly hour to go to these places with you.. To join you on these random adventures to seek out places by driving around, wouldn't mind how random and crazy you might be. Right now, I do not have that so called special person in my life but rather I have a handful of extremely important special peoples; my friends. Lovers come and go but friends will always be there for you, even at your worst. I've never believed in lovers over friends, it's just never been something I can comprehend and although it might seem slack on the lover.. I guess I just need to find someone who will become my best friend as well as lover. 

Friendship is a relationship. It's the relationship you have with these people and I just want to write down how important I hold relationships that are dear to me. 

I have a friend whom I've known since I was 12 years old. I'm now 29.. that means I've known her for 18 years. 2 more years and that is 2 decade of solid friendship right there. We might not always agree on the same stuff and sometimes we get so busy in our lives that we don't see each other much.. This has never made our friendship any less solid because we don't believe in the need to see one another every week just to justify our friendship. Still when we do meet up it's always in good company and happiness.

The other Sunday we decided to go to breakfast. Now me and her, don't do breakfast, brunch - yes, lunch - not really, dinner - hell yeah. Last year, we did a little mini trip down to almost Melbourne for the truffle hunt season. This year, no time, so I found a nice cafe in St Leonards that is putting truffle in their menu and believe it or not, in their hot chocolate and mocha!


Truffle is an acquire taste so not many like it. Kind of like stinky tofu and durian, both have their own unique taste. St Leonards is towards North Sydney and to me that always seem so far away but in all honestly it actually isn't, took me about 20 minute to drive, and yes I was driving within the speed limit. Parking was a bit of a hassle and we had to move the car at least once because of the waiting line outside the cafe. However, I did manage to find all day parking where there is no parking limit on a Sunday. 

My friend had ordered the truffle hot chocolate because she isn't a fan of coffee and while I did asked about the truffle in coffee, I was advised that the taste does not go well together so I opted for their truffle mocha, which is not an actual coffee. I had been checking their Instagram while we were waiting for our table and in the end we ordered the Mac N Cheese and the Tiramisu French Toast and yes both with truffle slices on top added. I think we might have picked too much sweet focus food, still my favourite will have to be the Tiramisu French Toast. 

It's a very cute little place so there is a bit of a waiting line but the staff are so friendly and a little sunshine never hurt nobody.
