Time & Place
The Mediterranean-leaning offering in the well-to-do Bentleigh area includes an inventive waffle made of falafel served with tahini yoghurt, avocado, pickled red cabbage, a fried egg and a dollop of spicy, fragrant homemade zhug, a Yemeni condiment made with chilli, garlic, fresh herbs, cumin, cardamom, caraway and other spices. 929 Centre Road, Bentleigh East, 3165, +61 3 0466 825 816

The Sweet Meadow Cafe
It calls itself a plant-based health bar, focusing on a vegan menu for health-conscious visitors... but one could be forgiven for assuming these delicious-looking vanilla waffles with berries, housemade ice-cream, chia jam, almond flakes and maple syrup - would sit firmly in the guilty pleasure category.
