Fledgling Espresso - Kurunjang

Insta: melbfoodie_mark<br/ YT: MelbFoodieMark<br/ Check them out for more food reviews in Melbourne!<br/ <br/ Such a lovely cafe hidden in Carlton North if I live nearby, I'd honestly visit every weekend just to relax and unwind. It was a sunny day so it was the perfect weather to sit outside in their beauty cozy courtyard.<br/ <br/ We ordered heaps: Mashed Pumpkin $19.5), Banana Bread French Toast $18.5), Fledge Benny $18), Big Fledge $23), Mushroom Medley $19.5). Slightly cheaper than most brunch places but most importantly, they do Zomato Gold!<br/ Mashed Pumpkin came out with halloumi, dukka, and poached egg on multigrain. Halloumi was surprisingly good and mashed pumpkin/sweet potatoe kinda tasted like Korean Pumpkin Porridge familiar taste. It was sufficiently creamy and its presentation was just wonderful.<br/ Highlight? Definitely, Banana Bread French Toast. It lived up to its reputation and satisfied everyone's sweet cravings with berry compote and pistachio praline. The banana bread was moist and creamy at the same time. I usually don't have a crazy sweet tooth but I definitely enjoyed it. Loved cotton on top!<br/ Such a pleasant brunch experience and already looking forward to returning!

As a mushroom lover, this dish was beyOndDdD enjoyable! The mushrooms were juicy, the sourdough was crispy the feta went so well w the dish. The herbs rly tied the dish together as well and added an extra touch to the overall flavor! Very very yummy overall i’ll DEFINITELY stop by here again soon to try their mashed pumpkin dish<br/ $19.50

Yesterday we visited @fledglingespresso for brunch as it was long overdue, but the wait was worth it.<br/ .<br/ We completely enjoyed amazing dishes of our brunch and the perfect sunny afternoon of our lovely Mebourne starting off with some coffee (of course)<br/ .<br/ You can view their photo menu on phone through @mr_yum_ <br/ We wanted to order everything but finally settled on <br/ BIG FLEDGE it had the assortment of the best bacon, mushrooms, chorizo,baked beans, avocado, tomato, spinach, eggs sourdough <br/ RUBEN SANDWICH needs no introduction with amazing cheese ham filling with chips<br/ BANANA BREAD FRENCH TOAST this is one dish which is not only pretty looking but super super delish. Even though we were full, but we still managed to finished it because it was sooo good.

Living locally I have been here a few times, most of their food is great though their muesli acai bowl is really dry with very little acai and yogurt making it so hard to chew and eat.<br/ <br/ Also the last time I visited, what I presume was the owner was sitting at table constantly asking to speak business with staff and staring at our table making it a little uncomfortable.<br/ <br/ I will return as I love to support local business and every else I’ve ordered in the past is yummy.

A LOVELY CAFE IN A QUIET NEIGHBOURHOOD OF CARLTON NORTH.<br/ <br/ Came here for a Sunday morning brunch and loved everything that this place has to offer. <br/ <br/ We loved how there is 4 different defined area for dining which includes a lovely courtyard with plenty of lush greenery. All areas has a warmth and cosiness to them, never feeling crowded or loud despite other people being there.<br/ <br/ We ordered the Mashed Pumpkin and The Banana French Toast and absolutely loved both dishes and no doubt we will order them again upon return. We highly recommend both dishes with both of them tasting so flavorsome with excellent presentation!<br/ <br/ Customer service was attentive and kind. They even made recommendations which is always a lovely touch when at a cafe. <br/ <br/ We can see why this is place gets rave reviews. Such a great cafe and experience!
