Well, yes and no. The espresso - fully Italian, yes. But in Italy, coffee is small and black, black, or black, in most cases during the day. Coffee with milk is considered more of a desert style coffee, maybe after dinner. Australia and N.Z. were the first countries to specialise in and make an art of milk based coffees we have today. I remember drinking a cappuccino in Europe, no thanks... The Flat White came from Australia/N.Z.

[@theimperfectscrapper5313]

As a Melbournian, the open warehouse, industrial aesthetic is very authentic. That’s a homemade sausage roll - I make them for my family just about every week! Edit - after reading the comments in this thread about the sausage roll, let me help clarify a few things. I’ve been making home made sausage rolls for decades because I’m celiac, so if I want a sausage roll (I’m not giving them up), I have to make them myself. Sausage rolls in Australia are normally made with sausage meat. Yours looks made with mince beef, probably because you can’t buy sausage meat there. That’s why it tastes similar to meat loaf. I’ve also made home made meat loaf for decades. Here, you can mix sausage meat and minced beef together for meat loaf. It’s hard to tell, but even the pastry could be home made. Not sure if you sell off-the-shelf puff pastry in the States. I’d say they’ve made it from scratch. So here we have a USA based Aussie cafe getting their food as close as possible to authentic Aussie food while being somewhat restricted by on-hand resources - good on them!

[@gingerdrake9158]

I'm from syd but live in Florida. Sausage meat is available here. I buy it in the tubes from a few different supermarkets. Good sausages are hard to find though amd puff pastry in expensive. Last time I bought it, it was about $5 for 2 sheets.

I'm a pommy barsteward not an aussie but that's not what a typical sausage roll looks like here in the UK, usually they're longer than they are wide, like an actual sausage(usually with the skin removed but not always) wrapped in pastry.

That's a sausage roll is a sample. So small 😂 You need to have a whole one. In paper bag and yeah anyone's coffee will beat a American percolated coffee. Flat white is Aussie recipe, but is made out of a real espresso coffee machine, that's why it's better. Sausage roll is the poor man's Aussie pie. Pie is what you need to be looking for 😉 But you must choose the right ones. Straight chunky steak is good start. Steak and kidney, or mushroom is best. Potato "heaps of mash on some mince" chicken veg is a watery rip off usually. And never get a pepper steak or curry. They never good as they sound.😅 Some exotic ones like kangaroo or seafood are good. But you must try plain steak meat pie first 😋

The sausage roll looks wonderful, home made, with a great golden pastry. Mass produced sausage rolls are longer, not as high and the meet can only been seen from either end (until you start eating). They are generally 4.5 ~ 6 inches long. Many cooks / bakers will vary the meat mix inside and some add herbs / spices. 👍

And the cheap & nasty ones only have a tiny bit of meat if any at all & they substitute minced up day old bread flavoured with a beef extract to cheat the customers & you can taste the difference right away from a decent Sausage roll.

[@johnwhear9600]

Confused are you saying an Aussie burger should or should not have beetroot?

[@DomingoDeSantaClara]

​@@johnwhear9600 definitely should, its almost standard in Aus/NZ.

[@helenh20mo]

Its not an aussie burger without beetroot

[@scaamraam]

Has to have beetroot!!!!

Nice to see the both of you enjoying good Aussie tucker. Love love love your Aboriginal shirt. Stay happy:)

What a shame Danni couldn’t get a Anzac bikkie!!! It would have done wonders for her post birth digestion!! I’m so glad you enjoyed our flat white. Coffee is an art in Melbourne baristas like myself are constantly striving to make the perfect coffee. We’re like surfers chasing the perfect wave

Next time go for the czech food. Maybe in Chicago if not here : ) Hi from CZ.

Hey, you got the US Street Outlaws out here in Oz running around the country. Might be worth checking out some of that action.

[@alwood9148]

as a aussie ,seen u many times a so glad to see u both enjoying something i take for granted, wait till u have a mashed potato meat pie with sauce messiest thing with a beard but u save bits for later....

[@michaelfogarty3239]

that's a big sausage roll. normally smaller and longer.

[@GreyDingo]

Maaaate, as a Melbournian it's a treat to watch you enjoy a "Melbourne flat white". The thing about coffee that if it's properly prepared with good beans it has a natural sweetness (not overpowering, but it's there). Bitter coffee signals burnt beans. I wonder where they got proper tomato sauce in USA... Imported? Anyway, happy you guys enjoyed it. Try the meat pie next time. 😂😂

[@teejayhaych149]

I think there a couple of places in LA owned by aussies that make aussie staples like pies, sausage rolls, vanilla slices, lamingtons etc and they do send them to other places within the U.S. i cant remember the names but im sure you could find them on google.

[@DudeMan30010]

I have lived in Melbourne for 40 years and yes we have great coffee and food

[@Jordy120]

Just that coffee alone got me dribblin on myself. AND then the sausage roll comes out and i'm dribblin on my dribblin. I'm off to the bakery before they shut.

WOW!!! A Coffee in the US tastes of, y'know. real coffee and not just sluge water. Thanks Danii xxx.

[@fishtigua]

[@BradGryphonn]

That sausage roll looks better than anything I've seen at home LOL. I think our love of coffee comes from the Italian/European influence we have. I always thought US coffee was better (though not having tasted it) than Aussie coffee. It wasn't until I got older that I heard that US coffee is just strong, bitter grounds. Australian coffee is constructed with care and love. Strong, yet not bitter.

[@tempdump8616]

WOW hats off to you - I'm glad you called Melbourne, Mel-ben, as we do call it down here. We do have some great food here, hope you can get here some day.

[@BeeMcDee]

That sausage roll looks more gourmet than what you’d get at a servo (they’re longer and thinner and the pasty is softer). You’d probably get something like that at a cafe here so that’s pretty authentic. 😉 Our coffee is so good. I haven’t tried Starbucks yet (apparently there’s one in Melbourne) but if it’s more watered down than our typical Aussie coffee, nuh uh, no thanks. Double shot cappuccino *chef’s kiss*

[@karlmcgowan9375]

Ian and Daniela, i'm close to drooling. That Aussie sausageroll looks dellicious, i think Daniela might try making this herself, being such a wizz in the kitchen.

[@swingsloth]

Sausage roll looks a bit fatter around than the typical variety we see at the local bakery. But looks bloody good. Stoked you got to try them.

[@The.Drunk-Koala]

"A bit" it's about 4 times the size.

[@vtbn53]

A long black is the best Australian coffee, and that looked nothing like an Australian sausage roll, BUT looked magnificent!

[@kevkoala]

It a gourmet one, not the normal ones you have for smoko.

[@stephenpage-murray7226]

It looked exactly the same as a quality sausage roll here in Australia. Not like the cheap, tasteless commercial rubbish.

[@karenandstevencornish2295]

You can get sausage rolls like that in Mildura Victoria 😋 they are delicious

[@phillipharding6610]

Watching from Down Under ! Melbourne Australia. 😊 glad you like Aussie food ! We have had a lot of European Influences for many many years since the 1950’s with food ! Hence our great food and coffee culture! New Sub .

We call it tomahto in Australia, sausage rolls are super easy to make, do a cooking stream, I have been making 'em with my little brother for years.

[@top40researcher31]

when you do come to australia some day in the future the food and the sights won't disappoint you

[@WatchingDude]

That's sausage roll isn't quite original but it's more of an upmarket cafe style version. You can get anything from the most basic sausage roll from your petrol station through to a much more fancy gourmet variety at a restaurant or up market Cafe.

[@chrisballard7594]

Yes those servo sausage rolls are the best, when drunk…

[@Obi-J]

The cheap ones with the bright pink, meat blancmange 'sausage', aren't even fit to feed to the dogs.

[@WatchingDude]

@@Obi-J yes the really really cheap ones are just nasty

Kia ora, Great video, a lil kiwi combo my mum blessed me with. A sausage roll cut in half and placed in a jam cream bun. Da bomb!!

There's plenty of sausage roll recipes online, maybe Daniella can make some for the family when she's got a bit more time.

Did every Aussie just yell at the telly when he dug into the rat coffin with a fork .??? Pick it up and hook in son !!! Lol lol great vid mate. Love your work !

[@notthisguyagain4635]

My friend went to America years ago and visited a Australian themed restaurant. When him and his family walked in they noticed the Australian beer posters on the walls, so he asked for an Australian beer. The reply from the waitress was, sorry sir we don’t actually sell those beers here. He did say the food was good though.
