"Can we go to Brunswick please???", I kept asking the Boy... petulantly pouting my lips and doing my best cutesy voice...
The Boy, "Why? Is it because you want to eat at Pope Joan?!"
Me: *blinks innocently*
The Boy: "Oh, alright!"
Me: *smiles mischievously*
It really wasn't all that hard to get him to agree... he loves Pope Joan as much as I do..
So, the second time round at Pope Joan, would it still be a hit, or will it succumb to popularity and let it's quality drop? The first time we were there, it was a great introduction to Matt Wilkinson's foray into cafe style breakfasts...
This second visit was just as good. The place was just as busy and bustling with locals.
We were seated right in front of the man himself. That's him looking suspiciously at myself... tying to take action shots of him working, but again, his speed is much to quick for me and my tiny camera...
This time round, I decided to order something from the Specials Board... I can't really remember what it was called (I forgot to take a picture of the board).
Pope Joan has become one of our favourite breakfast joints and I've only good things to say about it. My only hope is that the quality prevails!!
