We are a vegetarian cafe in the heart of Echuca, Victoria.

Living the Sweet Life - Sarah Bryant.
I've known Sarah for a long time - we first met when she was studying the same fashion design course as my older sister. I remember thinking she was one of the most fun, energetic people I'd ever met.

Recipe - Summertime Sadness Smoothie.
We created this special smoothie during one of the coldest weeks of winter.
