Sydney, Darling Harbour - Bona Fides Cafe Restaurant

Photo: Bona Fides Cafe Restaurant 
Front: Poached Eggs Benedict with Bacon drizzled with homemade hollandaise sauce
Back: Bacon and Scrambled Egg with Toast

Quality: 2 nomnoms out of 5!
Service: 3.5 nomnoms out of 5!
Pricing: $$ (drinks are $-$$) 

THE NOMNOMGRAM!

  • I came here for breakfast and the Quality of the food here really top notch and fresh! The poached eggs are perfectly cooked with the oozing yolk and the focaccia bread is freshly toasted. The biggest let down for me was the sauce on the Eggs Benedict because it had an acidic taste and really just ruined the whole meal for me and acidic food in the morning really isn't really a good idea haha. We also ordered a nutella french pancake (which really was a crepe) and the sauce tasted strange and a bit off so... maybe their sauces aren't their forte.  
  • The Customer Service here is really really good! There's always someone around if you need assistance and they're very friendly. Very Helpful staff and they are always on the ball to remove unnecessary plates and cutlery on your table! We walked by looking at the menu and they had a waitress standing there talking to us and somewhat convincing us to eat in (which is perfectly normal! Fish gotta swim People gotta eat right? =))
  • The Pricing here is quiteeeee expensive considering the proportions of the meals. The Eggs Benedict was $17 (honestly ripped a hole in a heart because it wasn't as delicious as what I hoped it would be!) and breakfast in general was an average of $16 or so. I haven't been there for Lunch or Dinner so.... We'll see how that goes =)
  • The Quanity of the food is pretty small... as you can tell from the photos above. But the Quality of the food is pretty good so I guess it balances out some what =P

**Side Notes 
Bona Fides have been quite popular lately, 
which I think it's becuase they have coupon 
deals available online so I've had quite a few 
people pop into the information centre
asking where the cafe restaurant is located. 
They are at a great location just around the 
waterfront, about 5 minutes walk from the 
IMAX theatre (which you cannot miss, hahah)
but the only downside is that the building
itself have 3 different names! 

Theres Home BarTokio Hotel and Bona Fides 
CafeI think Home bar is the function room (also 
nightclub upstairs) and the building in general, 
Tokio Hotel is the Bar section of the building and 
Bona Fides is the Cafe part. It'a all very confusing 
but all the same place! The coffee here is pretty 
goood! Very creamy and frothy! They also have a 
outdoor seating area which is really good for smokers 
and they also have a heater as well so you can keep 
yourself warm and toastie especially during winter!

Trying to do more posts, since I've been slacking off lately... yeeeaah.... Nevertheless! Plenty of food to eat and not enough time to post!

Meanwhile, have an AWESOME day and keeep smiling =)
