Really yummy pizza!!…read more My cousins discovered this place and raved about the pizza, so we ordered it on a Friday night. We called and ordered three pizza and they said it would be 30 minutes. We drove there from the city and got there in like 15 minutes. Parking is as bit of a challenge, but luckily someone was pulling out and we got a spot. This place was packed! The kitchen was tiny, four chefs crowded around the stove making pizzas. We had to wait about 15 minutes and walked around. There were a few other restaurants, but they were all fairly empty. Got the pizza and it smelled so good. Couldn't wait to eat it. We ordered the fratelli's - with mushroom, rocket and proscuitto, the Napolenta - which had olives and sardines and the Gamberoni, which had prawns, garlic and lemon. The Fratelli was delicious and they didn't skimp on the proscuitto. The Napolenta was nice but not a fan of sardines. The Gameroni was yummy and the prawns were delicious! Great place for pizza, probably the best I've tried in Sydney so far..

Another cafe has popped up in Mosman but this time its gluten and lactose free and I'm pretty…read moreexcited. At Cafe Free you can indulge with an American diner style serving of gluten free waffles or enjoy a bacon and egg gluten free roll to feed your hangover. I'm proud to say I wasn't hungover when I visited Cafe free so I chose the waffle route - its not everyday you see waffles listed as gluten free on a menu. Ordering gluten free pancakes or waffles is usually disappointing as eateries struggle to create the fluffiness of normal pancakes. I am often faced with a small serving that is sparingly decorated whilst everyone else is enjoying a stack of buttermilk pancakes with banana, ice cream and maple syrup. Not fair. Cafe Free is exempt from this gluten free bias. To my delight I was greeted with an epic stack of waffles covered in caramelised banana, strawberries and decadent dollops of treacle butter. The waffles were thick and doughy (who knew something gluten free could be doughy?), the banana was perfectly crispy and THAT TREACLE BUTTER. The dollops were initially intimidating and I felt pretty guilty watching them melt amongst the grid of the waffle but I finished the whole plate. No regrets. I was full for the rest of the day but if you had to choose one meal to last you the day you want to make it waffles from Cafe Free. Outside of the waffle experience is a menu full of items that we are used to seeing as gluten full. At Cafe Free you'll find wraps that don't crack, gluten free Vegemite spread and a steak sandwich on the menu. Beyond their breakfast and lunch menu they offer $20 take home dinners and are looking at moving into the evening with tapas. There were also talk of gluten free lasagna - win. All of this is thanks to their Chef, Zoe, and her family and friends who have come together to provide a gluten and lactose free dining experience. On arrival I am greeted by Zoe's brother, Adam and am served by one of Zoe's friends and her mum. Even amongst people buzzing in and out for a late breakfast or takeaway coffee, you can really feel that family element. Speaking with Zoe I learnt about her seasonal menu and experimentation with the baked goods that are on display in store and on social media (so you can't escape that almond milk custard tart that you've been thinking about all week). There is certainly plenty to look forward to as Cafe Free grows. Watch this space.

Genuinely the best Italian food I've ever eaten in my life. I had the papardelle with slow cooked…read moreduck ragu and it's hard to describe how good it was. The papardelle was thick and chewy with a delicate cheesiness and had an essence of the flavours from the decadent duck ragu; which was creamy and melts in your mouth. Their homemade focaccia (with garlic) was dense, garlicky and not too oily. The perfect appetizer and perfect for dipping in the seafood soup. And their tiramisu was delicious and just a perfect finalizer. To conclude, their service is great - all Italian staff and so polite and welcoming. The food came out very quick. High prices but it's honestly worth it the food here is insane. This restaurant definitely doesn't have the recognition it deserves. The best food I've ever had.

Previously, I might've thought that gluten-free products would taste inferior to gluten-filled ones... but eh, not really! Gluten-free tastes almost exactly the same!

However, it isn't some place that really stood out where I'm concerned. The burgers were okay, but no hugely fantastic, as was the case with the fries. However, it does seem to be pretty popular, especially considering how packed it was when I passed through, though it was something like 1:00 pm on a Saturday.

For our dine in experience we conformed to gender stereotype when I opted for a fish taco and my manly hunk chowed on a beef burger. The fish was of the tempura variety; crisp, light and fresh. I can't vouch for the burger but appreciate grunts were made and I think they were about the food. The homemade cordial was saccharine sweet and was the only thing to disappoint.

But putting aside the layout this is still a good cafe. The coffee here is good, and the barista is a lover of coffee and willing not only to advise, but also to complain about what is lacking with their style of coffee - which was surprisingly refreshing. The food here should be your drawing card here. It is simple but good. I really like the breakfast brioche, especially when add some mushrooms to it. Saying that they are willing here to add or subtract anything on the menu to make exactly what you would like on your plate. Going from there, the staff here are extremely friendly, and make you feel as if you are home. Which generally improve your experience. This is an extremely relaxed and that is awesome for the weekends. But sometimes this place is extremely busy and so you might miss out on a seat, but if you are lucky you can sit down and relax.
