Omm Nom Nom Nom! Yes, make your way to NOM cafe! NOM actually stands for No Other Meaning and not literally omm nom nom nom though. HAHA. But nevertheless, its definitely a good place for omm nom nom-ing. Its situated in Macpherson CC, with the colourful outlook, it totally stands out from the nature surrounding it. So not to worry that you’ll miss it! It has a modern with tinge of reminisce feel. It’s brightly lit, with semi open concept kitchen paired with cemented floor and the iconic dragon
Beside having a nice environment, it’s important to have reasonably priced food that matches its quality which I believe NOM has achieve it. Though their pricing might not be one of the cheapest among some of the cafes, but at least i feel like what I had spent is worthwhile. & it serves not only brunch but also some other mains like pizza, burgers, western style. Good variety I would say.
We’re quite spoilt for choices actually, but decided on the following: Root beer float, Cheesy Chicken Sausage ($11.90), Crispy Beer Battered Fish Burger ($11.90), Classic Egg Benedict ($9.90), Breakfast Rosti ($14.90) and ended our meal with Rainbow Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake and Churros ($7.90). Cheesy Chicken Sausage Pizza is not too bad. Although its like a thin crust pizza, but its more like a biscuit crust. Crisp and a little hard crackling. HAHAH, what a way to describe. but yea, you get what i mean. Its like french canape, where they have savoury fillings on crisps. Classic Egg Benedict, is quite average, not one of the best that I’ve tried before. I think I’m too used to having Benedict with smoked salmon, so when I tried a mouth with the ham, the overall taste is quite light in comparison.
& finally, here’s my Breakfast Rosti. So far it’s the first I had and saw that cafe brunch menu has something with Rosti! It’s one of the few. The other cafe I know of is “The Book Cafe” which has some brunch items with rosti too. But anyway, the point is, its yummy! Rosti with bacon, cheesy sausage and sunny side up! Totally like how the rosti is done, crisp on the outer and soft in the inner. Totally a good replacement of the usual muffin, brioche etc.
What’s a complete meal without dessert right? Churros here come with 2 dipping sauce – chocolate and caramel. Their rainbow cake come with a few flavours for their layering. There’s like chocolate, oreo and i cant rem :/ Dont the chocolate peanut cake looks devilish? All these sinful sweet treats. Moist flavourful cake they have there. All in all, its quite a nice place to dine at except that, they may be a lil short-handed. Hard to get the attention of their staff for things like re-filling of water etc once you’re done ordering. They do not have a corner with the water jugs and stuff for us to help ourselves to it too. But other than that, their food especially the breakfast rosti is worth a try!
