Satis, Watson

Update: Satis has closed permanently.

Satis has reopened at the Watson shops after a hiatus during which extensive remodelling of the cafe was undertaken. There's more area now and there has been a lot of thought put into creating a space that is visually attractive. Opening hours have been extended and sometimes there is live music in the evening.

We sampled the weekend breakfast menu. There was an item called "vegan breakfast" – a delicious fry-up of mushrooms, polenta fritters and grilled tomato, topped with a tasty sauce. We also ordered the granola which is made in-house. Here you will have to ask for the vegan option. Topped with fruit, this was very filling and quite sweet too. There is a selection of vegan cupcakes and slices available at the counter. I have a feeling we'll be back soon to try out the lunch and dinner options.

Update: Satis is no longer a meat-free establishment as of May 2014. We hope that Satis customers will continue to open their hearts and minds to the daily suffering of animals raised and slaughtered for human consumption. Please choose the vegan options on the menu.
