Breakfast for Champions

Echo on the Marina

Roseville
Nestled away under the comfort of the Roseville Bridge you will find Echo on the Marina, a quaint family owned café located on the waters edge of the Roseville Marina.
Deciding it was a nice morning for breakfast there was no other place to go to enjoy the sunshine, water and yummy food.


After following the winding trail of stairs we found ourselves right on the marina, hungry
for whatever we could find, we started with a hot chocolate each.
Possibly one of the greatest hot chocolates I've had, so warm and creamy a great
starter while browsing the menu for food.




Settling for one of the classics, eggs your way, we got scrambled eggs with a side of bacon each. After waiting for a while for our food to arrive, when it finally did, we dug in.

Boy was it worth the wait, the eggs so creamy, with the perfect amount of seasoning
and the crispy sourdough toast paired perfectly. The bacon crispy and delicious.
It really was money well spent.

Whoever thought bacon and eggs could be so great?

A Treat Well Earned

Chef's Gallery

Macquarie Centre

After a long week of double shifts and studying hard it was time to head out for a little treat.
Not wanting to head far from home Chef's Gallery at Macquarie Centre was the only place to go. A lovely fusion of modern Chinese it was hard to choose what to eat, the menu diverse with plenty to offer a choice was finally made.
Starting with a classic, Steamed BBQ Pork Buns, the feast was on. Best steamed pork buns I have ever had. Next was Peking Duck and Cucumber wrapped in Rotti, fresh and delicious!
Of course we had to have some noodles, we opted for the wok fried noodles with shredded pork and Chinese cabbage. Needless to say we were not disappointed.
But the real treat and worth the wait was desert. A combination of ice cream, fair floss and all things good this treat was quite an unusual combination but worked well and settled us for the night.

The mango and strawberry ice creams went down a treat, unfortunately after a small taste the green tea ice cream went untouched, not my cup of tea.
The fairy floss and sugar straps adding a little fun to the desert. The cookies were delicious taking me back to my childhood when I used to have hundreds and thousands biscuits. Finally the sundae cone holding the ice creams gave a savoury point to cut out the sweetness.

Overall a great night was had and would definitely go again.
