Three Blue Ducks

There's really not much the Duckies can't do. An excellent breakfast (dig that black pudding with scrambled eggs) backed up by an espresso ($3.50) that's a brooding, cherry- and chocolate-laden delight. Simple lunches and special degustation dinners are cooked by the most talented chef co-op around, and there's a growing wine and beer list for the non-cafe end of the day. Oh, and herbs and vegies are grown according to permaculture principles in the backyard. And all of this delivered in an unpretentious, light-hearted way that makes the Ducks a benchmark of its kind.
