Ave and I were searching for a brunch location and decided on Selfish Gene Cafe which has made several appearances on my Instagram newsfeed. This cafe opens seven days a week (they are open on Tuesdays too!), and has a more extensive food menu than drinks. Coffee selection seems limited - they might need to work on that part. Tables are a little too close for comfort - a good way to maximise space for profit, but noise level is disturbing. Not suitable for first dates nor for whiling away long a

Tables are a little too close for comfort - a good way to maximise space for profit, but noise level is disturbing. Not suitable for first dates nor for whiling away long afternoons with friends.
Chicken Sandwich - $9.80Despite a terrible ambience (more so, lacking), the mains was really good! I've always had bad experiences with sandwiches in cafes, usually being too dry. But the foccacia bread for this is not dry and it is also very fragrant with herbs! Very lovely especially with mayonnaise dressing. The chicken meat was a little stiff though, but still acceptable. The salad could do with more of the dressing. Well I'm biased against it because it is green.
The Valerie - $11.80Averie's pick was The Valerie, blueberry and cream compote atop toasted brioche, with scrambled eggs to go along. Pinched a little from her dish, it was pretty good too!
