Paleo cafes are still scarce, though their numbers are slowly growing. This addition to the fold arrived mid-last year, when co-founders Tom Davidson and Jacob Burke sought to carry over their passion for clean eating into a new eatery. This eatery is Patch, located within the heritage-restored channel 9 studio in Richmond.

After an unexpectedly short day of uni I dropped into The Fair Food Store on the way home for a quick brunch. There was very much of a hang-out vibe here with plenty of regulars coming in for both food and their coffee, made using Wide Open Road coffee beans. An all-day breakfast and lunch menu created by chef Dan Sawansak (formerly of Movida) means there's plenty of choice for people looking to fill their belly. I decided to go for something a little different: the pork belly crepe. Two perfectly...
