Last week was Rabbit Hole; this week Didas. Or should that be Dida’s. Never mind.

Rabbit Hole is a small funky-ish space with a courtyard out the back offering somewhat of a sea view. The menu is a blend of usual suspects/some with a twist such as the egg scramble with chilli and broad beans. Both of us were taken with that so duly ordered – Maggie’s with extra chilli and no beans.

Mine were good; the helping not too large and the chilli subtle. I enjoyed the unusual bean addition (shelled yay). Companion’s extra chilli was notably absent – this dame likes things hot – and we let the wait staff know. The coffee was hot (Velvet so organic) but could have been stronger. Service was great and the bathrooms wonderful – black chalkboard paint and luxe lighting.

Didas is a mash up of deli/to go items and eat in. The menu competes with the good-looking counter food. I went for the porridge, advertised on the menu as ‘apricot porridge with raspberry coulis’. What I expected was apricots in the porridge – perhaps even dried apricots given the time of year and raspberry swirled on top. What I had placed in front of me was a bowl of thick porridge with a swirl of apricot puree on the top and a small dish of the raspberry. The porridge was too thick for me but may have suited a person with Scottish tendencies – porridge is stand-your-spoon-in-thick there. Companion Mags opted out of menu – which is fairly standard – and enjoyed a great savory muffin with the necessary chilli factor. Coffee is Atlas and smooth and hot, stronger than Rabbit’s but again not quite that caffeine hit needed for the start of a Friday.

We thought Didas probably a 6 or 7 out of 10 – the service is good – bathrooms not so. Rabbit probably similar although of the two I would return to Rabbit first.
