Toast is a popular cafe and food store in the main street of Pambula. The central table creates intimacy with low hanging bamboo lamp shades encouraging local women to share confidences over lunch. From a chalkboard special, the strawberry sunrise ($10) delivers a glass of frosty pink happiness crowned with whipped cream and a glacé cherry. Threatening to topple over, the buttermilk fried chicken burger ($20) with a cheeky slice of cheese ($1) sandwiches a plump, crisp skinned chicken fillet with salad fixings inside a milk bun. It’s good but very drippy so don’t be planning on putting it down mid-feed.
From the boutique selection of goods lining the food store I picked up Sir Racha’s truffled hot sauce ($9). Free from preservatives, this fermented hot sauce made on chillies grown on the Northern Coast of New South Wales is produced in Port Macquarie. With garlic, onions and tomatoes for body, it’s hella tasty on both sausages or...
Read moreDearrrrrr GODDDD!!!!! If you're travelling through Pambula, or Merimbula, or you're in Perth and are hungry....drive, fly whatever....just get yourself in here! Okonomiyaki... not the traditional Japanese pancake, but stunning fried balls of utter deliciousness. How good are they? Well, my family, my son and HIS family regularly drive the 1.15min south for breakfast, to feast on the delights this incredible cafe produces. (Did I mention the Okonomiyaki??) You eat with your eyes, that's truth, which is why when your meal is put before you there will be ooohs and aaahs... exquisitely presented, so gorgeous its difficult to start eating (like, how the hell do you turn an avocado into something that looks like a Lotus flower???) Coffee and drinks are also superb, staff awesome...and no, I have no skin in the game...just a true lover of good food. This restaurant/Cafe has it all, I...
Read moreWe visit Toast Pambula every time we come down to the area even if we have to travel an extra 30 minutes for it. The cafe has an amazing feel to it and the inside is gorgeous. When we come down, we’re always greeted by Jenni at the door and she always has a big smile on her face. She talks to us like we’re known each other forever and helps you decide what to get off the menu. (I personally recommend their new Iced Strawberry Matcha with ice cream and whipped cream - fingers crossed this becomes permanent on the menu because OMG it’s so delicious). You recieve your food and drinks really quickly and are not rushed to finish. They have some little goodies inside the cafe as well which are great for gifts. Thank you Toast Pambula for always giving us the pleasure of visiting your beautiful cafe -...
