Layla enjoys her journey to a place only 100% ice cream can take you. She’s so content with her milkshake, that she even shares some with me. When our food arrives the adult plates are beautifully presented, and have a great mix of ingredients. My brown rice Chirashi Bowl has poached salmon, crab and greens. Layla tries it and agrees that it’s “very good”. The Savoury Rice Porridge is a spicier choice, with coriander, ginger, and pickled mustard leaf, joining tofu and a slow poached egg. Unsurprisingly, this doesn’t tempt Layla. The Kids Menu offers a small range of options for $7 and the Apple Crumble Porridge is a slightly confusing option for Layla. Next time I would order her either the Chicken Katsu Sandwich, or share a mains with her. The interiors at Fat Albert are stunning. Imagine a Wes Anderson film set in a diner, entirely in pink, add some plants and friendly staff, and you’re there. I’m told there may be a box of toys for children to play with in future. This would help make an enjoyable meal last longer, as once the kids have eaten they want to get going. There’s plenty to choose from nearby. You can take the kids swimming at MSCA, book shopping at Avenue Bookstore, or to the playgrounds in St Vincent Gardens or Albert Park Primary School, which is open at weekends. It’s a great idea for exploring on a scooter, too. We grab a coffee, and a babycino, and hit the road.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”thon-hot-tips-panel”]HOT Tips:
