Review of Cumulus Inc.

Beautiful setting, food a let-down

Beautiful setting, food a let-down

Went today for breakfast (7/7/2017) with a friend. Lovely service, very friendly waiter, coffees ordered and served promptly.
Ordered the shakshouka for my breakfast. This was very disappointing. Absolutely no peppers (capsicums) in the sauce at all. Could not taste or see them. Poorly seasoned tomatoes, bland feta. Overall very much a 1 star dish, and not something I would order again. A real shame as I had read great reviews of this dish; perhaps they had the apprentice chef on the shakshouka this morning.
That said, loved the service, loved the coffee, great atmosphere, and my friend loved her porridge with kumquat marmalade. So I will be back, but not for the eggs!
