Gilbert's is a quaint eating-hole in the heart of Dulwich. On this occasion we had the Kimchi-eggs with Avocado relish. The eggs were perfectly seasoned with the right amount of kimchi such that their was an appropriate hint of spiciness to this dish without it being over powering. Great flavours all round.
As an avocado lover, I would have preferred a bit more avocado, but hey, wouldn't we all. The small avocado pieces were lovely to bite on in the relish that adorned the kick eggs..
I had a hot chocolate, which I would highly recommend. The chocolate-iness really was great, again not too much, not too little. A lovely milk chocolate, with dark chocolate powder on top, and best of all, two marshmallows on the side, one pink, one white!

Oh, and don't forget to check out Kylie's little orange and almond cakes. Just make sure you leave some...

Not only is the food absolutely delicious, fresh beautifully presented, but the coffee is also very good (and we are fussy). The owners and staff are so friendly and welcoming and I would highly recommend you visit this little gem. You definitely...
