Oh
me,
oh
my.
What
a
fabulous
cafe
restaurant
we
have
tucked
away
here.
I
lived
around
here
many
moons
ago.
The
number
of
good
cafes
it
had
at
that
time
was
zilch.
Zero.
Nil.
None.
Take
your
pick
of
word.
There
was
nought
of
note
here.
But,
boy,
things
have
changed.
Olive
Lane
is
easily
the
best
cafe
in
the
area
on
what
I’ve
experienced.
It’s
modern.
It’s
pleasing
to
the
eye.
Pleasing
to
the
palate
as
well.
It’s
well
run
too.
The
look
is
modern
chic
here.
It’s
not
overdone
and
the
cafe
is
pleasantly
fitted
out.
There
are
good
indoor
and
outdoor
areas.
Service
was
charming
throughout.
Harmonious,
efficient
and
pleasant
with
a
good
team
atmosphere.
There
was
a
great
R&B
mix
on,
black
panther
soundtrack
excerpts
and
the
like.
The
mellow
stuff
not
the
gangsta
stuff.
It
went
down
well
and
also
importantly
didn’t
spook
any
of
the
older
customers.
My
coffee
to
start
was
lovely.
A
good
solid
long
black
which
was
well
made
and
well
served.
I
ordered
lamb
shoulder
for
my
lunch.
It
may
be
the
best
lamb
I’ve
ever
had.
Soft
and
full
of
moisture.
Full
of
flavour
with
a
gorgeous
lemony
tang.
The
meat
was
gently
falling
off
the
bone.
It
was
an
utterly
beautiful
dish.
I’d
cross
any
number
of
suburbs
to
eat
lamb
this
good.
Every
mouthful
was
amazing.
I
didn’t
fancy
the
menu
listed
potatoes
and
asked
for
a
salad
in
lieu.
It
was
a
lovely
little
Greek
salad
I
chose.
It
became
more
and
more
delicious
as
I
had
it.
A
beautifully
composed
and
balanced
salad.
Every
element
was
superb
with
just
the
right
mix
of
oil.
It
was
a
tiny
bit
pricey
here
but
it’s
all
quality.
On
paying
I
discovered
there
was
no
direct
swap,
potatoes
for
salad,
as
I’d
hoped
so
the
meal
cost
me
more
than
I
had
anticipated.
I
should
have
queried
it,
I
suppose,
or
clarified
the
matter
when
ordering.
It’s
a
very
good
cafe
though
and
I’ll
long
have
memories
of
that
exceptional
lamb
dish.
