Haven Tailoring Coffee Joyously, Surry Hills

My sister gave me a voucher to come here (a while ago LOL, such a late post) and so I came along to try the beautiful instagram-worthy egg waffles for my breakfast haha. It's located very near to Central station at 30-34 Chalmers Street, Surry Hills and I didn't need to wait in line on a Friday around 10:30-11am. Service was quick, nice and attentive. Chairs weren't the most comfortable but it was okay haha.

Dragon's Breath

I think that's what it was called, it's been a while so can't remember the name of the drink haha. But, I assume it was the oolong tea with apple and honey. My bad memory can probably be attributed to the fact that it didn't have a strong taste of any of those and was rather watery as time passed. It was more of refreshing subtle blend of everything. A tad sweet but near non-existent, a light and refreshing drink paired well with the sweet egg waffle.

Zucchini Hotcakes w/ Truffle Oil ($16.50)
Green peas & zucchini hotcakes, sugar snap, carrot stir-fry, fresh chilli, feta crumbs, black truffle oil, fluffy yoghurt dressing

Friend really enjoyed this. Especially the zucchini and truffle oil. I ate a bit but was too overwhelmed by the zucchini and dressing that I couldn't take more than two bites. Don't think I like savoury hotcakes with zucchini or corn or whatever.

Tiramisu Egg Waffle ($16.50)
Espresso infused marsala reduction, whipped cream. mascarpone mousse, dark chocolate baked cream, fresh strawberries, classic plain waffle

Waffle was very nice and soft with a bit of chewiness. It paired well with the cream, mousse and baked cream. Didn't like the cocoa lol and strawberries were sour. Wasn't overly into the mousse since it was quite sweet but that dark chocolate cream, although baked was really nice with the waffle.

Nutty Cold Brew ($6)

Friend enjoyed it, I hate bitter stuff so it just tasted like bitter water to me LOL

Overall, really enjoyed the atmosphere and service here. It's so close to Central station as well so that's a plus! I really wanna try the other egg waffles, I think that was the main highlight for me hahaha.
