Catching a tram ... Foodie outing at The Tramsheds

The Tramsheds at Harold Park, an old tram depot turned foodie hub, holds a dozen or so foodie establishments, but the amazing thing is, they all look fabulous! It's easy to organise a dessert tour there but then the main question is where to start, what to have, and how many we can manage...

We started our day with a coffee and a very healthy breakfast at Garcon. Serving Little Marionette coffee (yay to great coffee!) and pastries from Black Star, we were spoilt... Pity there wasn't that many of us, and wanting to explore some more, we shared a chia and black rice pudding that was fit for a king, a queen, or any foodie in the world.



Saying a bientot to Garcon, we moved on to some (gasp!!) light lunch at The Butcher and the Farmer. It was a warm day, our appetite wasn't geared for their signature meals or wines, but a light salad, charcuterie plate and some cool drinks really hit the spot....


Then we had some deliciously tangy raspberry sorbet and a summery trifle with muscat jelly. All refreshing and perfectly suited to a warm day like today.

At the end of the day we could only stare at the hand made pasta drying on the racks at Flour Eggs Water, admire the walls of wine and the tapas at Bodega 1904, and curious over the international cuisines on offer such as Osaka Trading Co or Bekya.

In short, we shall return!
