[Just a quick note - since it's exam season I won't be very active with my posts]
Last Saturday I headed to Fitzroy for a long awaited catch up brunch session with some my friends.
It was a sunny afternoon and we fortunate enough to get a table outside where we could enjoy the beautiful spring weather. Unlike other brunch places, Industry Bean's outdoor seating feels somewhat like a veranda so it's quite nice when you get a combination of sunlight and refreshing breezes that won't mess your hair up! They also offer indoor seating too, which kinda reminds me of the inside of a modern industrial warehouse.
Latte
Some of the dishes that were ordered by my friends.
Tamarind Blue Swimmer Crab ($22)
Cripsy prawns, green apple, lychee, thai herb omelette
Lemongrass Beef ($23)
Betel leaf, brown rice, bean shoots, pickled chilli, nahm jim & vietnamese mint
This salmon plate was shared between the 6 of us. I found it quite a struggle to lift my portion off the plate with all that avocado mousse. It was almost overwhelming, a powerful blend of flavors and textures that made it very intriguing palate. I was just surprised by how much flavour each bite had, yet I able to pick up the distinctive taste of everything.

I can't wait to be back to try all the other dishes on their menu! Plus I love everything about the way their dishes are presented, the plating and the assortment of colors. If you're a brunch addict and a keen Instagramer, I'd highly recommend you checking out this place!
