Perfect Cup, North Adelaide

The Perfect Cup has four outlets around Adelaide. Your reviewer has visited the outlets at the Adelaide Central Market and Grenfell Street. The North Adelaide café is attached to the Meridian Hotel on Melbourne Street. The menu and service is more like that of a restaurant than the Café at the other two outlets. The emphasis is on main meals rather than snacks and sandwiches. It is a nice place to sit and watch Melbourne Street through the glass walls.

The beverage menu is different from the menus at Grenfell Street and Adelaide Central Market. There was no Dutch or Swiss hot chocolate to choose from. There was just a standard hot chocolate and a marble hot chocolate. The standard hot chocolate was served in a glass that was hot to touch on a saucer with a pink and a white marshmallow. It was topped with a white froth and a semicircle of chocolate powder. The drink was too sweet and not chocolaty enough. The cost was $3.60.
