The Corner Cafe, Port Macquarie


Continuing my holiday to Port Macquiire, on the second day of our trip, we really feels like having breakfast before we head back home. We looked up Urbanspoon to see what's the local favourite and apparently Corner Cafe came up as the cafe with highest ratings, so we went there and the place was already filled with customers. Luckily we don't have to wait before we got our table.

A fact about Corner Cafe is that they are the only restaurant on the mid north coast that serves Campos Coffee, which is one of the reason Bebski agreed to dine here :)
And as usual, he got his Flat white morning hit


And I got my Mocha.. was thinking chai latte but I'm pretty curious on the coffee :)


Mr.Wjt got his Latte.

Mr.Wjt got the Bacon and egg roll with tomato relish. The dish was my first choice but for the sake of photo varieties, I ordered another dish ;p BAcon and egg roll is just a perfect combo for breakfast in my opinion, especially if the egg yolk and perfectly cooked. Unfortunately Mr.Wjt didn't like runny eggyolk. Seriously o.O hehe..

Bacon and egg roll with Tomato Relish $14
For me, I got the Bacon and Egg to your liking with thick cut toast. I was really craving for Scrambled eggs, so I chose that and it may looked like a simple breakfast but it was so filling and a perfect meal to fill up my tummy :)

$15
Mr.US was going to ge thte big breakkie but because we spent alot already on foods and the trip, he decided to order similar to mine but he asked for a sunny side up eggs ^^

$15
Overall the corner serves great coffee and good food, it's just that the price is more to the exxy sides considering the simplicity of the foods and if you compare to other brunch places in Sydney ;p Well, its not right to compare it to Sydney but yea I wouldn't go back for seconds I guess..

Hogs Breath Cafe, Port Macquarie



So I went to Port Macquarie like a month ago and Hogs Breath seems to be the best place to have dinner there.. We went there on a Saturday night and boy the queue was crazy.. Can't imagine what happen if they open Hurricane's Grill here ;p But it didn't take that long before we got our seat.


There are Hogs Breath in Sydney too but it didn't appeal that much to me when compare to other steak places, so this was a good chance for me to try this place out. Mr.Wjt said that it's pretty good.


To start with, Mr.US decided to order the Finger Food combo for entrée which consists of the classic potato skins, vegetble spring roolls, crumbed chicken tenders, and salt pepper calamari. Served with sweet chilli sauce and honey mustard. The portion was pretty generous that it nicely fills our tummy a bit before the mains. I personally loveeee the spring rolls and the calamari :)

Finger Food Combo $22.95
Bebski and Mr.Us ordered the Blackened Prime Rib - the steak was seasoned with Hogsbreath's blackened seasoning, a light cajun flavour. It was good and the flavour did penetrate in the meat nicely.

In Hogs breath, they have 3 different sizes of the meat; The traditional cut, the Lite cut and the Mega cut for an extra $7. Bebski did ordered the Mega cut and he had a hard time finishing it off, it's literally so huge!


Mr.Wjt got the Byron Bay Chilli Prime Rib - the sauce made up of Chilli and Coconut, and it got the 2007 world champion chilli sauce with heat rating 7/10. The sauce was hands down delish! no wonder they received the award.. But the heat is not 7/10, prolly just 5? hehe. But its hot enough to make Mr.Wjt sweat a bit ;p

Byron Bay Chilli Prime Rib $31.95
And for me.. My total weakness is mushroom! I ordered the Garlic Mushroom Prime rib with Baked potato and veggies :) The steak was topped with garlic butter and generous portion of mushroom that was enough to put a smile on my face. I loveee shrooms! The steak was tender and flavourful! Can't imagine I haven't try this place out any sooner..

Lite cut Garlic mushroom prime rib $27.95
Unfortunately we didn't have any more place for dessert.. But I will definitely be back to Hogs breath for any steak cravings in the future!
