It was the day of the Great Ocean Road drive adventure and it'll take us an approximate of about 4 hours if we drove all the way from Mornington Peninsula. Took the Sorrento-Portsea ferry to Queenscliff with our car so that we get a head-start to the Great Ocean Road drive. This cuts down our driving time to just under 2 hours. The ferry costs about AUD117 per car with 1 driver and 3 passengers. There was an online discount of AUD5.
The morning ferry ride was nice, with awesome views. We made a late lunch stop at Lorne before going all the way to Twelve Apostles.

Reached Lorne at about 1pm and, I was quite hungry since our breakfast was kinda early at 9am on the ferry. Chose the outdoor seats to enjoy the cold weather. Opted for a mocha and we decided to order brunch things from this cafe.

| Mocha by Coffee Supreme @AUD5 (regular) |
The mocha here was good. With latte art and thick foam. In fact, they had the thickest foam I've ever had from a mocha.

For food, we ordered the Bacon, Avo and Eggs, and some flatbreads. The visuals for these were impeccable!

While I was awed by the visuals of the Bacon, Avo and Eggs, I realised that the pide had better flavours!
 |
| Reuben @AUD17 |
When I first saw the Reuben, my thoughts were "This doesn't look like a Reuben!". Like, the Reuben's that I had before, their pastrami doesn't look like the ones served at Moons. The version here looked more like a ham sandwich. But once I had this in my mouth, oh wow... it was like an explosion of flavours. The combination of sauerkraut, dijonaise sauce, pickles, cheese and pastrami, everything in there was just great. Tasty food, I like.

| B&E @AUD16.50 |
The next flatbread we had was another Bacon and Egg (B&E). Hahaa! A sunny side up here instead of poached. Salty bacon, cheese and egg. What's there not to like?

The staff at Moons were friendly and nice. Thank you for the awesome food, good coffee and clean washroom.
We walked a bit around the area after satisfying our tummies and there's a Selfie Lane, that's aptly named as it looked like the backdrop for a... selfie, what else! Hahaa!
