Napa
/Napa is a charming café in Glen Iris that boasts a stunning menu inspired by cuisines from around the world alongside excellent coffee poured by adept baristas.
We loved both the dishes that we sampled.
The Napa nourish bowl was a nutrient dense mix of Shawarma spiced cauliflower, cucumber and onion pickle, hummus and cashews finished with creamy tahini dressing and served with fluffy za’atar flatbread. It was beautifully wholesome dish that had been prepared without a single sacrifice to flavour.
The dish of Avocado Toast was similarly delightful - Napa’s commendable take on Melbourne breakfast, the smashed avo, this was a class act. Simple but simply delicious. Think crusty thick cut rye bread topped with luxurious baba ganoush, cubes of avocado and topped with kale and almond pesto. We added some hot smoked salmon to the dish and were not disappointed!
Napa is the perfect embodiment of a thriving Melbourne café, a weekend brunch mecca, drawing in the crowds week in week out with its consistently excellent food, fantastic coffee and cheerful wait staff. We simply cannot wait to return.
