3.67 'Trendy Bondi local'
Hello Bottega. You are a trendy little spot aren't you? I like your hanging bird cages, fun blackboard messages and cheeky local patrons. You're like a funky bar that serves eggs and coffee instead of wine and cheese boards. I had your pumpkin and cinnamon bread with ricotta and fruit compote. Nice combo. D's proscuitto and eggs with basil was equally yummy. The best part was the coffee - you scatter real chocolate on your caps just like Tiger! And although the knife wasn't sharp, I appreciate the hearty weight of it. I'll be back Bottega, I like you...
Coffee: 4 Bonus point for chocolate flakes on top of the caps (yum!), but docked a point for slight bitterness.
Eggs: 4 Big and gooey.
Toast: 4 No sourdough but rye is nice.
Knife: 3 Not serrated but I do like its weighty handle and style.
Ambience: 4 Good music, chilled vibe, very local.
