Snow Pony

So, for months I've heard friends rave on and on about the Snow Pony cafe located on Whitehorse Road in Balwyn.

I've had it on my to-eat-list for ages and the boyfriend finally brought me there one fine Sunday morning for brunch. :)

The boyfriend and I both had the mocha and surprise surprise, they came with really pretty coffee art.

It might not have been the best mocha I've had but nothing quite like a good cuppa mocha to kick start my Sunday morning! ;)

The boyfriend opted for the Mc' Pony – English muffin stuffed with ham off the bone, emmental cheese and creamy dreamy scrambles.

I had a bite (or maybe two) and whilst I have to admit that it didn't have a WOW factor to it, but it was still nice nonetheless. Def better than Macca's McMuffin! ;P

The Giddy Up, on the other hand, was beautifully done. The eggs were perfectly poached with the rich and running yolks oozing out. Love!

The bacon was how I like them to be - crispy. And of course the thick cut toast that went perfectly well with the avocado and thyme buttered flavourful mushrooms.

The portion was a little too big for me, so I gave half to the boyfriend who wasn't filled up enough with just a McPony.

My verdict? Food was good; Snow Pony delivered well and lived up to my expectations. :) Also not to forget, the staffs were very friendly and it has a nice rustic ambience.

Would I return? I will, if the boyfriend is willing to drive me there again. And yes, definitely recommended to give it a go. :)

You won't miss this quirky lil cafe with this snow pony standing tall above the shop! Very cute, don't you think? ;)
