Stumbled upon this place by accident, after we turned up at Bronte Australian Restaurant at 8 Greenwood Avenue for brunch, only to find out that it has mysteriously become 8 at Green instead (and was closed too). So we just walked around the area and decided to try this place (4 shops down, at 12 Greenwood Avenue).

| Othello's Big Brekkie, $18 |
Scrambled eggs, a slice of country ham, two country sausages, back bacon, baked beans, mushrooms and a cup of fresh fruit salad. Served with farmhouse bread and oven roasted tomato.
The portion was actually quite moderate, so we were not too full after eating. The scrambled eggs, ham and bacon were quite okay, but the hash browns were a little too oily. The sausages were really bad - it didn't really taste like sausages, for one thing - but the texture also felt like some overly mashed meat.

| Duo of Eggs Benedict & Florentine, $14 |
This was a nice combination of Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine - I say this because I like both. But I am sure that if you only prefer one, you can let the waiter know and they can serve only one type. This was still good, though I felt that the hollandaise sauce could be stronger, and the eggs could be a tiny bit less cooked. But the smoked salmon was a pleasant surprise, as they actually gave some fatty portions. I am not sure if that was intended, though! Still, this dish was not bad overall, and $14 is really pretty reasonable.
