Malibu Sandwiches
You may have already heard of Malibu sandwiches as a result of a scathing review on eatabillity.com, branding co-owner Marcella as the butter wouldn't melt 'sandwich nazi'. These opinions shouldn't divert the attention from this epic eat down.
Malibu definitely isn't for the vain eater, don't take your pocket mirror and it's probably a good idea to avoid it on a first date.
Grilled fish
"It's the latest craze. Every corner shop seems to have its own grilled fish deal. And the cheapest one is on the corner of Devonshire and Holt Streets. It's really good. Grilled fish, chips and salad. $6.50. I tell you what, that's a bargain! And it's semi healthy. The one on Foveaux is $9.50.
Cafe Splat
What's with cafés these days? They're pimped out with the latest organic free-trade coffee, a million-dollar fit-out and the hippest of hipster-doofus waiters. That's if you can find a seat, which isn't in someone's armpit. I just wanna read the paper, score a fat bacon and egg roll and sip a flat white in relaxed surroundings.
Brunch at Love Supreme
You know when you do something so good you don't want to risk spoiling it by telling everyone - this is that. It is with great reluctance but a whole lot of goodwill that I pass on this piece of edible information.
If you haven't already experienced the pizza-magic of Love Supreme, then you're an idiot, but even if you have, you may not realise that on a Saturday and Sunday morning those same pizza ovens and dedicated pastry chefs are turningout THE BEST BRUNCH anywhere in Sydney (no exaggeration, it's science).
Common Ground Bakery and Cafe
If you've been craving organic baked goods and café nosh prepared by folks in peasant clothing that live communally and worship Jesus under his original Hebrew name of Yahshua -boy have I got the place for you.
Common Ground Bakery in Rozelle serves up tasty baked goods, salads, sandwiches, and pizza in the evening.
Golden Century
There's nothing sexy about Golden Century. It's got kitsch ‘80s-era Chinese cultural décor, (gold-leaf dragons and red furnishings), a mess-hall atmosphere and the manger wears a double-breasted suit (have a look here).
But the FOOD! Oh sweet baby Joysus! It's the BEST place in Sydney for Chinese food.
