Kansas City Shuffle, The rocks

If you ever crave for a really good waffle in Sydney, I would highly recommend visiting Kansas City Shuffle! I went here with my sis and Mr.R for a quick breakkie before hitting the next cafe since I got my dayoff on Thursday.. 

The two must order dishes there are the KCS style Beef Brisket with Waffle, Smoked Chilli Butter and poached Eggs and The Hotcakes!

KCS Brisket waffle below is amazingly smoked to perfection which you can taste in every bite of the beef and the tenderness of the meat is not even a question. The waffle was crispy on the edge and so fluffy in the inside, not to forget the smoked chilli butter has some spicy kick to it. 

KCS Brisket Waffle $20

Another dish that we tried was the KCS Cuban Sandwich with Berkshire Pork belly, Ham, Cheese, Pickles and Mustard. It was alright I guess, nothing special in it, I was kinda hoping more filling in between those sourdough ;P

KCS Cuban Sandwich $17

Another must order dish is the Pancake with lemon curd, blueberries, cream cheese parfait & smoked almonds. The batter to the pancake wasn't too heavy and they're still gooey in the middle. Not sure whether it's how they want to serve it or they undercooked them? Anyhow we loveeeee it and the cream cheese parfait is just a perfect addition to the pancake!!

Pancake $17.50

KCS is pretty hidden in the alley around the Rocks area. I would recommend coming in for breakfast before the queue starts. But they have two dining area which will reduce the waiting times in peak hours :) A tip for me would be not to share the brisket waffle cause they're too goooooood ;P

Sugar Cube, Wollongong

After Seafood feast in Kiama, we were craving for desserttt.... So a day before this one day getaway trip, I googled a dessert place in Wollonggong and Sugar Cube came up. From the website, they served an array of waffles with fruits, ice creams and toppings.

They have outdoor seating too but yesterday was too hot for us to seat outside :( But we regretted our decision as inside was warm too :(

 It wasn't that crowded when we were there. In fact, there wasn't many people on the road even in the city.. Maybe everyone travelled to Sydney for their weekends ;P

A Colourful walls from where we seated. Its too tempting to take a pic!

They also sell various choc pots!

We got the ultimate waffles which have two waffles drizzled with melted chocolate and caramel, a generous portion of bananas and strawberries drizzled with the same toppings as the waffles, a full bowl of whipped cream and a full bowl of 1 scoop vanilla ice cream and 1 scoop of chocolate ice cream, I dont even wanna think about the amount of sugar = calories on the plate of yummy goodness!

The waffles was average as I used to eating max brenner waffles ;P It wasn't bad but not great,, I'm really happy with the fruit portion though, unlike other dessert junction that they served 4-5 pieces of bananas only T.T

The Ultimate waffles 19.95

Next time I come here, I want to try the waffle pops :) We were too full to order anything else :(

The service was great! The staff was very friendly and helpful.. Its a good place to hang out if they can turn on the AC on a hot day hehe :)
