Zest Café Gallery

Zest Café is at 2A Sussex Tce just off Jetty Road, Glenelg. It is a small venue but it packs a lot of goodness into a small area. It is a table service café with an interesting menu of light meals and is one of the SALA 2010 venues. The exhibit is called "Cuppa" by Cameron Lewcock, which is a series of meticulously drawn coloured pencil drawings of different cups of coffees and teas. Alas the closest he gets to an illustration of a hot chocolate is a mocca.

The Zest hot chocolate comes in big green cup with little cinnamon scroll to nibble on in the saucer. It is topped with a tasty brown froth and a semicircle of chocolate powder. The chocolate drink is high quality, rich and creamy and cost four dollars.

Glenelg is putting on its own "Seaside Art Trail" incorporating around some of the main SALA venues. Many of the shops on the Jetty Road trail have one or two art works hanging on there walls. On this trip to Glenelg, your reviewer also viewed a feast of different artworks at the Glenelg Art Gallery which is the mezzanine level of Dymocks Books at 55 Jetty Road.
