A few Italian people I know say it's a bit overpriced compared to the western suburbs, and I can see that it may be for some items, but I think they are not too bad. The layout of the store is typical Italian grocer, with as many items as they can fit and everything grouped logically, which I like. They have flour sections with descriptions of what the particular flours are best for (e.g. pizza/bread/pasta). They have a great range of cheeses and cold meats, fresh pasta, coffee, Italian wines and spirits, biscuits, cakes, sweets, antipasto and canned and jarred tomatoes, passatta and marinated everything. They also sell wholesale to caterers and event organisers and have delivery and a catalogue that can be requested from their website, where they also have recipes and events notices, such as wine tastings. On one end of the store there is also a bakery/pizza bar with barista coffee, authentic Italian pizzas and panini and freshly baked bread and pastries at a good price. It's worth checking out just for the bread. I bought a great large sourdough for about $5. Bellissimo.

I was fortunate to meet Nidhi at the MasterChef auditions and even though we are now friends I hope this review isn't considered biased. I did pay for my meal and it was absolutely delicious. As the famous chef Marco Pierre White raved about Nidhi's lamb curry on the show it wasn't hard to choose that particular dish from the menu. At $14.50 a serve, provided in a handy microwaveable container I chose to eat at the shopping centre instead of bringing it home for dinner. The lamb curry was full of flavour and the meat instantly shredded from slow cooking, served with basmati rice, pickle and absolutely delicious crisp potato chips. I chose a serving of garlic naan ($3) too and Nidhi rolled the dough in front of me and cooked it fresh. Everything is homemade even the drinks. Served with love for sure and Nidhi's big smile. I'll be back soon to have a Lamb Kofta Burger.

The coffee is nice too, which makes my decision of coming back a no brainer. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the atmosphere. Definitely in need of some acoustic dampening. It was very noisy, and not very comfortable in the heat. But with the beach being right outside, if you can snag a spot outside, then you're bound to have a near perfect experience.

Overall, the interior decorations is a hipsters dream. The seating within the establishment is also unique as you may sit outside on wood tables or inside with more wood tables and couches. The seating is rather intimate and close to other surrounding tables. I went in on a hot day (39.2 C) and it was rather stuffy inside. Their air conditioner was not strong enough to battle the heat. Our water was also a bit warm due to the heat and I would have loved to be offered ice. This made for an uncomfortable experience. However, I would still go to this cafe as long as it wasn't to hot! A suggestion to the owners of this fine establishment is to reposition your music set up. During our meal we wanted to enjoy the music however all we could hear was the bass and a few lyrics. This was a little annoying but is an easy fix! The food was delicious and the fruit was fresh! The staff were also very friendly and presented themselves in a professional manner as well as enjoying the overall atmosphere of this cafe.

I had 3 vegetarian spring rolls, a massive bowl of chicken lemon grass noodles and 2 glasses of wine for $30. Now that's impressive enough (who doesn't live cheap eats?) but the taste is phenomenal! The spring rolls were fresh, packed with veges with just the right amount of crunch and the noodle bowl is massive and comes with a side of chili sauce that you can pour over to add a bit of a kick, they don't skimp on the meat either! Their decor is nice enough for a casual date (maybe not your first) and there's a family friendly vibe as soon as you walk in the door and are greeted by their wonderful staff who made us laugh as well as enjoy our food.
