The South Melbourne Trader by Katherine

This is a sponsored post.

The owner emailed me a few weeks ago asking me to try out this restaurant and so I did.

They had just opened in South Melbourne near the South Melbourne Market. As I don't frequent this area behind the market often, it was hard for me to find.
















They are a cafe as well as a bar serving the the finest wines. They do many coffees here including filter and cold drip.

The lady that served me was sweet. She was very friendly and had a little bit of an accent.

The place has free WI-FI and lots of seating.

I had pancakes with blueberries and lemon curd ($15.60) and a long black ($3.20) The pancakes were a tad bit dry but I loved dipping it in the lemon curd and berries. In fact I loved the lemon curd- it was homemade.

The long black came with a shot of soda water which I thought was a bit strange but my waitress explained that it was a palate cleanser. And I certainly did need it after all because the flavours were strong. The coffee beans were by Proud Mary. And I know that Proud Mary does a good coffee so this did not disappoint. Here the coffee tasted bitter and nutty and worked really well with the soda water.

I'd love to come back in the summer to try their cold drinks and their stellar cold coffee!
