the estelle

sounds like a lovely place. will definitely be adding this little gem to my over-flowing list of things to do on the weekend. so much to do, so little time ...

What:
The Estelle
Where: 243 High St, Northcote
When: Tues-Thurs 8am-11pm, Fri-Sat 8am-midnight, Sun 9am-11pm
Contact: 9489 4609

The Estelle is a new cafe, two doors down from Joe's Shoe Store. In the time it took me to type that, they sold seventeen coffees and a baked eggs boogaloo, so I suggest you get down there quick sticks before you're standing in a queue the length of High Street. And now, six reasons to stay in line:
  • Velvety coffee in beautiful, vintage cups.
  • Tapas-style food that will never try to tell you a baked cheese sandwich is a croque monsieur.
  • The owner, Josh, grew up in Coolangatta and has magicked a fit-out based on his memories of the fibro houses he BMXed past on the way to school.
  • Outdoor tables big enough for almost 300 ashtrays.
  • A 100% edible garden (snacks!)
  • Open when assholes want breakfast; also open when you want breakfast.

pokemon

fiona: i saw pokemon on tv today and thought of you.
amanda: why on earth would pokemon remind you of me?
fiona: because they're small and cute, with the potential to be evil all at the same time.

i'll forgive and forget before i'm paralyzed
do i have to keep up the pace to keep you satisfied

things have gotten closer to the sun
and i've done things in small doses
so don't think that i'm pushing you away
when you're the one that i've kept closest
