Cumulus Inc. Melbourne

On our first few days in Oz, we had been told breakfast was a bit of ‘a thing’ in Melbourne, that everyone went out for breakfast/brunch on the weekends to catch up with friends or to simply enjoy some good grub.

We were given the heads up on Cumulus Inc, which had the rep for being one of the best breakfast places in Melbourne, and is situated on 45 Flinders Lane, conveniently right behind our lovely Hotel Lindrum.

On our last morning in Melbourne, we were determined to sample a good breakfast, as most of our eating had been night time affairs.  We arrived at Cumulus at about 11.38 only to be told that breakfast finishes at 11.30am!  Oh, we were so sad.  Fear not, though, the very kind barrista wearing rather trendy specs suggsted that we wait til 12 and we could be seated for lunch.  We battled on and braved the 20 minute wait.  So glad we did.

After our supreme meatfest in Tjanabi, we really wanted a salad.  Like, really.
