Bread in Common

Gordon Street Garage has a rival - the newly opened Bread in Common on Pakenham Street in Fremantle.

It is along similar lines - a converted warehouse, carefully fashioned to maintain the industrial feel and with its own wood fired bakery overseen by none other than the amazing german baker from Yallingup Wood Fired Bakery.

 

It's very Melbourne - and the coffee is great.

Look Up

Whenever I am in Fremantle I look up at the tops of the old buildings, as they are often quite ornate and some have names written on them in wonderful old style lettering.

It usually means I end up walking straight past wherever I am supposed to be going as I forget to look at the shopfronts on street level.

The top one is my favourite as it is such big bold writing, and it is in red, which is unusual, as most writing on old buildings is either in black or white.
