BrimCC - Organic Soup and Japanese Cafe

BrimCC is without a doubt one of my fave spots for a nutritious and delicious lunch in the CBD.

The occasion was catching up with an ex-colleague of mine Emily – a truly inspirational woman who has ditched the corporate legal world to pursue her dreams in architecture.  The venue was BrimCC – a quaint little café on Little Collins Street (which on most days has a line weaving out of its doors – definitely a good sign for a Melbourne lunch venue).  

Even though the venue is always bustling, the staff are friendly and efficient in taking its customers’ orders, and even quicker at getting the food out to the hungry hoards – making it a timely option for an hour lunch break.

While I am not usually the biggest fan of Japanese Curry (I often find them gluggy and flavourless), the organic curry is definitely the go-to option on BrimCC’s menu and can be had on its own, or in a soup or salad combination. 

Today I had the large chicken and tomato curry with rice ($10.00) and Emily had the half curry with half salad combo – choosing the potato mayo salad at an incredibly reasonable $9.50.

 

As always, the food was exceptional.  The curry was light but flavoursome and the chicken was juicy and tender. After having food envy over Emily’s salad (who kindly let me have a bit) I can also attest to the potato mayo salad being rather delicious – not too much mayonnaise with the perfect hint of seeded mustard.

Yet again BrimCC did not fail to impress and is definitely a fave I will be going back to. 

Verdict: Love
