Leroys is pumping out the brunchs at 11AM. It is nearly packed. Phew its hot where is my mango frappe! This place is so cool. Gig posters span the walls in all directions. Young crew serve great food - ciabattas with pesto, scrambled eggs and smoked salmon are delicious. Going for a stroll through the shops of Acland St then to the beach of St Kilda.

Just having a seat at Leroys. A nice mango frappe, muesli and yoghart, chillin with the missus. It is moments like this I won’t ever forget.
