Oh Flute. Its been a while. Went there for a somewhat enjoyable breakfast with my GF (apple of my eye). While I appreciate the decadence and concept of the meals, there isnt enough fresh items to counterbalance the flavours. The truffled eggs were intense and in an enormous portion. The scones were delicious. The good points were its different, well priced and great value and good service.
Very nice breakfast with generous servings. Hot chocolates (both white and dark) were very good. The staff were very friendly and attentive.
Went for lunch – menu selection was very impressive and the food was amazing, particularly the calamari. The service was also very good with friendly, attentive staff. The best dining experience I’ve had in a while.
I’ve spent the last 36 hours flip-flopping on how to write this review. I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever experienced such wonderful service (4) and beautifully plated food (4.5) – they even pump air conditioning to their outdoor seating (bonus points) – when the food itself tasted so poor (2).If I was on Instagram and bothered to bring the good camera, Flute Fine Foods would have been everything I could ask for. But the difference between posting pics and writing a review is that the taste, texture and flavor of the food itself is the main event.We ordered the Absolutely Fabulous Scones (that is what they are called – they were not fabulous), Belgian Waffles, Jambon Beurre Baguette, and sides of Bacon, Spicy Chorizo and Chips to go along with an Iced Latte and Babyccino.The Iced Latte was large and had good flavor – 3.5. The Babyccino was beautifully presented, and was served with a marshmallow and a piece of chocolate, as well as a cocktail umbrella. Mini Meatball was more than pleased – 4.The Absolutely Fabulous Scones were freshly baked and were slightly overdone. The texture was more akin to a rustic corn bread than a scone, and it was served with Fruit Compote and Vanilla Bean Infused Double Cream. The scones themselves rated a 3, while the Fruit rated a 4, and the Cream rated a 2 (way too sweet for my taste). Half of the scones went uneaten. Overall, the dish rated a 3.Sadly, the underside of the Belgian Waffles was burnt. This was initially overlooked due to the many flourishes on the plate – Persian Floss (candy floss), Ice Cream, Vanilla Bean Infused Double Cream and Salted Caramel – but was plainly visible after the ice cream accidentally toppled over before I could photograph the dish. Knowingly serving burnt food is a cardinal sin in my book. The dish was also meant to include mixed berries (there was one split strawberry as garnish) and was not meant to have ice cream. The dish that was served to us did not match the menu description and was burnt – all the fancy plating can’t make up for that. The waffles rate a 2.The Jambon Beurre Baguette was described as including Leg Ham, Matured Cheddar and Cracked Pepper. The baguette and the ham were fine, but the shaved cheese did not taste like matured cheddar. If it was an aged cheddar, it wasn’t a good one, though I suspect it might have actually been a Pecorino Romano or Grana Padano. Either way, the ham baguette missed the mark – 2.5.Unfortunately, the side of bacon was served with the same shaved cheese on top. It looked beautiful, but the cheese’s flavor detracted from the bacon. This rated a 3.The Spicy Chorizo was plated on the same plate as the bacon and was served with some kind of Sweet Corn Salsa, a green sauce and drizzled with a glaze. Like the bacon, it looked beautiful, but the flavor of the chorizo was in competition with several other flavors that I did not find complimentary. I had to push myself to eat one of the two chorizos, but just couldn’t bring myself to eat the second one. I mentioned to the waitress that I didn’t enjoy the dish, noting an unpleasant tangy flavor. She advised that this was a BBQ Balsamic Glaze and that she would pass my feedback to the chef. It is a shame, because I suspect that the chorizo on its own would have been quite nice. As it was, it rated a 1.The chips were good – nice and crunchy. The aioli was quite runny and a bit heavy on the lemon. The chips and aioli rate a 3.5. Hopefully the kitchen was just having a bad day. I may revise my rating lower to a 2.5, but it just feels so harsh for a restaurant that did so many things right…sadly the food just wasn’t one of them.
Lovely afternoon spent at this little gem. It’s nice how the staff don’t try to push you out the door and just let you enjoy a leisurely lunch. Had the chicken Caesar baguette. They don’t do substitutions but still accommodate for allergies. Friends tried the nudie burger which apparently was amazing, and the salmon and avocado stack which was filling but refreshing. The drinks over ice were very generous in size. Only one size for takeaway cups. Staff very friendly and attentive.
I read the review and went to try this place yesterday. Staff were very friendly and I can’t fault the service. We ordered a spicy chorizo and a bacon & egg with couscous wrap. They were very tasty. It was a very warm day and the aircon in the restaurant definitely helped. This place is worthy of a second visit.
I went to the Flute Fine Foods along the Cavendish Road not the Flute near the Woolworth. It is very much appreciated that they start trading so early in the morning on Sunday. Took a seat at the al fresco dinning area and I was the third table at that moment. Service is fantastic friendly. I ordered the flat white and Scones for the brekkie. Wow! I love the coffee cup that they are serving although it is not quite user-friendly when the coffee is hot. Strength and presentation of coffee are definitely above average. Hero should be the scones that I have not had so satisfied scones for a while and they served the best. The two golden color scones with soft content perfectly matched with the double cream and the fresh berries. Again, taste and presentation are all on the top of the hill….all together only charged $10.50…Wow! it made my day! Highly recommended!
