WHERE TO EAT Lotus Cafe Where:  45 Sinnathamby Boulevard, 1 Springfield Central Q 4300 The perfect location for that much needed study break, Lotus Café is located on the ground floor of Springfield Tower at 145 Sinnathamby Blvd, Springfield Central. Drive or take a short 15 minute walk through the Robelle Domain Parklands and you will find yourself at one of Springfield’s best cafes. Lotus Café is open for breakfast from 7am weekdays making it the perfect place to grab a coffee and a bite to eat on the way to class, and is open for lunch until 3pm. The menu is brimming with choice and vegetarian and gluten free options are readily available. To get your mouth watering, here are a few of my favourites, and believe me, it was hard to choose: • Breakfast Toastie – Okay, so I swap out the egg for mushrooms but this has been a favourite of mine for a while. Paired with a coffee to go, this makes the perfect breakfast on the run. • Pulled Pork Roll – Nothing says comfort food like pulled pork, and this roll, complete with slow cooked pork and smoky BBQ sauce really hits the spot! Sure it might not be practical to eat over the keyboard while catching up on lectures, but we all need a study break, right? VISIT ON If you are looking for a FACEBOOK place to catch up with friends, grab a good quality coffee on the way to class, or just grab a bite to eat, then this is the place to go!
