Coin Laundry

Nestled in the leafy suburb of Armadale, Coin Laundry is a bright and clean space conveniently located across the street from Armadale Station.  Cute decor, enjoyable food and tempting coffees - there is certainly a real buzz about the place.

Skinny Flat White

Of course, coffee could not be skipped. My Flat White was gratifying and was definitely a great pick-me-up.

Soy Latte

Wagyu Beef Burger

Feeling carnivorous, I welcomed the monstrous Wagyu Beef Burger with open arms. The aromas wafting from the herbed french fries alone were sensational. The Japanese inspired burger was a perfect affair of wagyu beef, BLT, egg and wasabi infused kewpie mayo. The wagyu beef patty was succulent and juicy to the point that it disintegrated in my mouth. The yolk seductively trickled into the crevices of the patty. Let's not forget the crispy rashers of bacon.  I hate myself for only getting through half of this.

Moroccan Grilled Chicken Salad

In complete contrast, T ordered a salad consisting of Moroccan grilled chicken, mixed lettuce with fresh tomato, cucumber and onion dressed in a creamy lime yoghurt. Putting me to shame, T finished up each and every bite of her dish.

There was nothing I could really fault here. The food and drinks were amazing, and the service was squeaky clean. Though, do expect to wait a good 30 minutes to nab yourself a seat on the weekend. Coin Laundry is really the place to be seen.

Coin Laundry

Addicted to brunching, and having heard many good things of this cute cafe, my friend and I decided to see what the buzz was about. As the name suggests, Coin Laundry was given its name as it was in fact in its former life, a coin laundromat. 

It was certainly a bonus that I could save on petrol as this cafe was much closer to home.

I began with my mandatory skinny flat white.

After careful deliberation, I ordered the Smoked Salmon and Summer Salad dish, whilst my friend ordered the Spanish Breakfast.

Smoked Salmon (kosher), summer salad,

 walnut, toasted brioche and poached egg

Just look at that ! Man, I'm drooling as I type. This dish was really what I needed. Filling yet also light and refreshing. However, I was not the biggest fan of the brioche. Though it was soft, rich in butter and tender,  the sides were slightly burnt. The eggs were also a little to vinegary for my liking.

Spanish Breakfast of fresh herbs, truss cherry tomatoes, Spanish onion,

 feta cheese and smoked salmon in fluffy scrambled eggs

Perfect presentation. As for the taste, I stole a few bites and was delighted by fragrant herbs encased in the creamy scrambled eggs.

Service was friendly, food was delivered promptly and the ambience was refreshing. Worrying over applying for Graduate Positions, Coin Laundry was exactly what we needed to calm our nerves.
