I'm running a week behind on my blog and its stressing me out! As I'm churning through the cafes this means as part of my resolution I have to document these experiences! I am loving the writing, it comes easy to me and its also very therapeutic in a funny way, but its finding the the hours in the day to do it... If Darby grabs a nap I jot down a few lines, if I take a break for lunch at work I write a little. When Darby goes to bed, i try and write, but I'm often too comatose myself that I cant keep my eyes open and all that comes out is blah blah blah!!! So this week my aim will be to a)catch up b)find a little time in my day to write on this!
So Im writing this as a quick little blog! I don't really need to write much about this place, it is one that I have visited earlier in the year... but gee it is worth a visit again! (my excuse now to revisit is to collect a business card!)
The destination: St Ali http://stali.com.au/au/in Yarra Place South Melbourne.
It was my monday morning coffee, so it is needed badly and quickly, Darby was hyper so I wanted to get out of there soon as I could , but still have time to enjoy the experience - it was a fine line to balance!
Basically these are my messily scribbled notes I wrote whilst I was there and it doesnt need much more than that to sum up my experience
St Ali -Darby Hyper
- Non Descript Street
- Indutsrial to the Max
- Heavenly coffee
- Strong, heady
- NO FAULTS HERE!
I might leave it at that really! That summed it up on that day perfectly! I didnt stay long, I'm sure darby was on the edge and about to run amok any second but I managed to keep him under control (with the help of a delicious chocloate,raspberry and coconut muffin!)
Ohh and we had our first "celebrity" coffee sighting! Lisa McCune (not sure she is classed a celeb but oh well) was in St Ali ordering a coffee, went to sit down next to us on the big communal table but caught a glimpse of Darby and his cheekiness and took a more intimate solo spot in the corner, don't blame her, I do exactly the same when I'm by myself!
On Tuesday I had a trillion doctors appointments so I didnt get to go to work so I really missed my morning coffee from Eleveneses! I did however get to go to the opening morning of Wee Jeannie in my hood, Yarraville. Wee Jeannie is brought to us by the mastermind who was behind my all time favorite Le Chien, and then Corner Shop and now this tiny cafe next to the yarraville station! Its so nice, and different. The coffee was spot on and they had only been open for an hour or so! This will be becoming a regular again! Another great place in the West!
Until Next time xxx
