| Welcome! |
Last week, I was able to get together with Alicia for a quick lunch (Check out her blog here). We decided to go to Kitchen by Mike which was very close to Alicia's workplace. Kitchen by Mike doesn't have any sign outside or anything for that matter. Once you get into dunning ave, the entrance is somewhere in the middle of grey-painted never-ending wall.
Usually, this garage door will open and you can have an overview of the Kitchen and Koskela Studio (Read about this in my other post) but not today I suppose.
Up the lil' stairs, you will spot this outdoor dining area with mixture of wood, plastic and metal furniture. This looks uncoordinated, but I call it 'organised mess'.

| Plant pot for cutlery holder? Why not. |
 |
| Used tomato cans. |
 |
| Antler Bell. |
 |
| On the right is the entrance to Koskela Studio |
I gotta say, I love high ceiling.
This makes you wanna jump and dance.
No, seriously. The high ceiling makes you breath better and exercise your eyesight.
I love the idea of using this warehouse as is, a lil' bit of dirt here and there. Don't get me wrong the kitchen's quite clean inside and out.

| Crowded! |
The menu changes everyday, as they use the freshest ingredients that are in season. If you want to find out what they have on the day, go to their facebook page and like it.
They would constantly cook the food, so whenever you are there, you'll get your food. They serve pretty quickly, so don't worry if you see a long line.
This brings back memory when you were lining up in your canteen and looking through what they have for the day (which definitely will increase your starving meter!)
 |
| $12 a loaf |
If you don't want to buy a whole loaf, you can add a couple of slice to your order.
 |
| Crispy Pork belly with chutney for $11.00 a piece |
Hmmm, look at the juice dripping down. I just. got. to. zoomed. it. in.
 |
| Feel like a glass of wine? or a bottle? |
At first we didn't realised what this means. Seconds later, we did a long AAAHHHs. Anyone get it?
I had (below): Wood fired okra, chickpeas, mint, hazelnuts and labna salad + Iceberg jalapenos smothered with tamarind dressing + Lemon and Barley juice.
Alicia had (top): Green bean, fig, hazelnut and feta salad + Pumpkin, cumin onion, and persian feta tartine on sourdough toast.
Until next time,
Tania xx
