The design brief for Palomino seems to have been 'stylish kitsch'. Look around and there's tacky porcelain ornaments randomly resting on the ledges and dotted around the boxed wooden shelving. The backdrop though is a stylish royal blue feature wall, fern wallpaper and hanging round orbs of soft light over the bar.Only Anita tried the food and hot chocolate, but Palomino is the kind of low-key cafe that I'd like to hang out in all the time. It seems that Northcote residents and visitors feel the same way, as there was constant traffic in and out of its cosy warmth on a Sunday afternoon.
