Taste and style, Lee & Me – Wollongong

We all like something a little different from the norm, and because of this you’re simply going to love what Lee and Me has to offer. A cross-breed of cafe and boutique, Lee and Me incorporates high-class food with style and fashion that is good enough for any supermodel take gourmet chef. Located in an old heritage terrace house that oozes personality from the get-go, this property’s ground floor has been transformed into a vintage cafe which is well-known for serving up delicious, nutritional feasts to an array of health-conscious diners. Dishes such as smoked trout salad and green and grain salad are just a couple of crowd pleasers that feature on their ever-unique menu. If you’re the kind of person who’d rather swap a piece of cake for a retro shirt, then head up the staircase where you will be greeted by a closet of fashionable garments all readily available for purchase. Basically step into Lee in Me with an empty stomach and tired-out jeans, and walk out feeling hunger-free and stylish. What more could you possibly ask for?
