Food Scene

Incredibly popular bakery that does the best sweet & savoury pastries, pies & cakes. Try the lamb & harissa sausage roll- yum! I don't rate the coffee though (walk up Bourke St to Artificer)

My fave spot for brunch - excellent coffee & Middle Eastern- inspired menu (beetroot labneh is my go-to dish). Always a queue on the weekend but you tend to get seated pretty quickly.
