Revolver - Annandale, Sydney

There’s nothing better than a sleep-in followed by brunch on Sunday mornings. I can already feel the winter chills in Sydney and my heart yearns for a hot hearty breakfast. We are spoilt for choice with the number of cafes in Sydney and it does take something special to stand out amongst the crowd. I recently visited a family-run café in Annandale which is extremely popular with the locals. Sorry Annandalians, your secret is out.

The queue can get quite long around noon, so come early if you don't want to wait in the cold. The daily specials board is filled with goodies but I have my eyes set on only one thing – the Big Breakie. After a short wait, my brunch landed on the table straight from the kitchen, pan and all. The Revolver Big Breakie comes with bacon, pork fennel sausage, mushroom, tomato (on the menu but missing from my pan), house-made beans, two free range organic eggs baked into the pan plus toast on the side. A vegetarian option is also available with avocado, fetta and hummus replacing the bacon and sausage.

The dish was piping hot to the last bite and it took no encouragement to polish off the pan. This is one satisfying hearty breakfast and it’s just the thing to entice you out of bed this winter.
