I remember when Chadstone was a bit of a foodie destination. It’s taken a while, and I think it will continue to improve, but I love the options now - whether it’s food court, cafe or restaurant. Melbourne had some pretty terrible weather and I didn’t want to stay home but it was too wet and windy to be outside. I took my book and headed to Chadstone! By the time I got there it was 1.30pm and I was hungry!
Scrambled eggs with lobster, feta and chilli and bacon
I chose Little Sparrow cafe (which also has an outlet in the new food court) as it was close, it wasn’t too busy and there were a few things on the menu I wanted to try. It was nice to be out of the bustle of the shopping centre, and it was a little quieter too.
The service was reasonable, though I struggled to gain attention from a waiter to ask for a water refill. I liked that they didn’t push me out when I was done, allowing me to sit for a bit and continue reading.
My scrambled eggs with lobster, feta and chilli came on toast with a pea sprout salad (see first pic). However, I ordered it without the toast as I'm going low-carb here. I ordered a side of bacon... because... it's bacon! My dish arrived without any pea sprouts which was a bit of a shame. The bacon was very satisfying - a good sized serve with the perfect balance of crispy fatty bits and meat. Mmmmm bacon... sorry, I got distracted! The scrambled eggs were lovely. The delicate lobster flavour was subtle but very discernible - I’m guessing it was frozen but there was a decent amount. I always love chillies, and they added some depth and zing to a light dish.
