| - If you have never been to Kensington Market then that is the first item of business for you. The second, visiting the local shops and experiencing the atmosphere because it is great. While you are experiencing Kensington in all its glory stop in at The Grind House.
This is a small little place at the north end of the market on Augusta St. and it delivers some decent coffee. I was not overly impressed by anything, but just satisfied and it met my expectations.
I had a Cortado, which was well made and the coffee art was very unique. I didn't try any of the food because I went there specifically for the coffee. Although, a bunch of people came in and just ordered food. So, I started to see how they made the food. I looked around a bit, no stove, no burners, just a toaster oven and a toaster. Then I heard some beeps, a microwave.
I know it is tough to do food right, but I have listened to enough professional chefs and they say don't ever go to a restaurant that uses a microwave.
I think the coffee is great and the food could be good too, but I wasn't impressed by the use of a microwave.
I would come back for a coffee, but not for anything else.
This place meets expectations.
That's it.
