two tasty sins

Caramels, Lake Cathie

Last week I ventured down to Lake Cathie for my first visit to Caramels, a friendly cafe attached to a Woolworths complex. Much to my parents dismay, I have quite expensive taste when it comes to food, the atmosphere and surroundings of the cafe- being a car park- didn't make Caramels my first choice for meeting with a friend. Needless to say, the welcoming cafe offered nice food and coffee, a varied menu that made it hard to choose and friendly service.
I absolutely love when cafes serve coffee with something on the side as, in my opinion, it signals a cafe's care for their customer. It would be interesting to know what other cafes, perhaps somewhat unusually, offer on the side- I have witnessed Tiny Teddy biscuits, bullets, a Jatz biscuit, biscotti and now a freckle.
On another note, I only took to chai lattes this week; the one I had at Caramels being the first in around two years. It was nice enough to convince me that I like chai and has translated into me drinking at least one every second day this week.
Mexican crepe with sour cream, salsa, guacamole and a side salad
The food at Caramels was ordinary, but still worth the money. My Mexican crepe was not what I was expecting, filled with mince and lacking traditional Mexican spices and red beans. The side salad was nice- with juicy roma tomatoes, cucumber three different types of capsicum and spinach- yet a poorly matched accompaniment for the crepes. While the meal was uninspiring it was not horrible. If I ever found myself hungry in Lake Cathie I would revisit Caramels.

Basically, I love food, eating and coffee. I struggle to not buy coffee every day; my favourite outing is one that involves stuffing my mouth and I am a sucker for all things sweet (yet still tell myself I can refrain from indulging). As it is then, two tasty sins is one third procrastination from my journalism degree, one third a log for my dining exploits and one third an attempt to make your mouths water.
