Montagu as in Lord John Montagu, as in the fourth Earl of Sandwich; the one who after carousing all night would book-end his food with sliced bread. Snuggled into the pedestrian strip of Ernest Street, it's a no-brainer for office workers, local mums and shoppers stopping for a toasty breakfast or a lunchtime sanga bursting with pork and fennel salami and gruyere. There's even a 'secretive' dark chocolate with sea salt dessert sandwich option. Toss in a densely frothed, roasty Montagu house blend cappuccino ($3.50) and raise a toast - and indeed, some toast - to the small portrait of the good Lord himself.
