    I don’t normally eat breakfast simply because it impinges on my sleep time. In fact, to save time every morning, I generally don’t brush my hair or put make up on either and tend to grunt instead of saying good morning.

    I have improved though – as a kid, I used to sleep in my school uniform so that I wouldn’t have to wake up and get changed (I still think it’s a brilliant idea).

    Just because I don’t eat breakfast, doesn’t mean I don’t like it though. In particular, I had a pretty damn good one today at Cafe Vamp (and I even got to see the judge of ‘Thank God You’re Here‘ which is probably one of the biggest celebrity encounter I’ve ever had).

    Atlantic Breakfast – smoked salmon, poached eggs, buttered spinach on toast.

    Pan-fried Mushies – grilled haloumi and lemon, mushrooms scrambled eggs & rocket.

    Quick rating – 8/10. Great size, variety, quality and service. Go get yourself some!

    …makes me want to stab myself in the eye with a fork. Actually I think that applies to all their drinks as well.

    I actually shuddered when I took a bite out of this ‘lemon zesty slice’…

    I even blurred the photo to try and make it a distant memory, but I guess there’s no point in polishing turds right?

    I got this latte from Degraves Espresso on Degraves street.

    Although I was pleasantly surprised by their latte art, I wasn’t so pleased I had to drink the caffeinated version (they ran out of decaf).

    I’ve recently come to the conclusion that skinny decaf is arguably the best drink to make you look like you’ve made the effort to grab a coffee. I think I’ll get a ristretto skinny decaf next time, which should really be called ‘Diet Coffee’…
