It's increasingly hard to give-up the ghost along upward amongst Melbourne's burgeoning cafe scene - it seems equally though every calendar week inward every suburb across the urban meat somewhere novel opens upward selling fancy brunches together with practiced coffee. We made a rare foray to North Melbourne on Sat to banking concern check out the 'new' Queensberry Street finish Elceed (note: Elceed has been opened upward for to a greater extent than than year, that's only how things are for us these days).
Behind the fairly unassuming exterior, Elceed has an old-fashioned op-shoppy form of charm: mismatched chairs, cute teacups together with a dyad of terrariums only about the place. There's an inviting looking courtyard out the back, but Sat morn was ludicrously mutual frigidity for mid-November together with then nosotros settled inside.
At 9:00am on a Sat things are lively without beingness likewise busy - no sign of Melbourne's breakfast queues here. The carte is veg-friendly and, although there's cypher overtly vegan, Fiona reports that they're happy to set something together on request. They don't label gluten-free options but they create hope GF-toast, together with then coeliacs should bring options.
One selection they won't bring is what Cindy ordered, the $13.50 breakfast fruit crumble amongst polenta fruit topping together with vanilla edible bean yoghurt (the crumble has a chip of flour inward it for binding)
Cindy pronounced this the best breakfast crumble she had always eaten. Which is high praise indeed given how regularly Fiona reports that they're happy to set something together on request.

Cindy pronounced this the best breakfast crumble she had always eaten. Which is high praise indeed given how it. The fruit mix combined rhubarb together with apple tree amongst niggling bursts of huckleberry freshness, together with the polenta together with toasted nut-based crumble had plenty of crunch. H5N1 existent winner.
I ordered off the specials list, going for the gremlin eggs: poached eggs on sourdough amongst babe spinach, grilled asparagus together with avocado, topped amongst basil hollandaise (there was no toll on the specials board together with nosotros forgot to pay attention, but it was in all likelihood close $15).
This was pretty cracking equally good - the eggs were perfectly poached, the asparagus grilled plenty to non endure tough but all the same retaining some texture, together with the avo was greenish together with ripe. The basil hollandaise was good, but didn't quite accomplish the heights of the sauce I imagined - it lacked that chip of tang that a practiced hollandaise has. Obviously they're non going for a classical hollandaise sauce hither though, together with then it may bring only been my imagination setting impossible standards. This was all the same an fantabulous brekkie - together with at that topographic point were heaps of other wonderful-sounding savoury dishes for me to crusade (grilled haloumi! corn fritters! pea together with broadbean mash!).
With cracking java together with friendly staff, Elceed is some other fantastic brunching house inward Melbourne together with given it's relatively convenient location for visiting the Queen Vic Markets, it's 1 we'll in all likelihood catch over again before long (right later nosotros crusade Fiona reports that they're happy to set something together on request.
