    I can't believe I'm lucky enough to live next door to this place!! O'Hea's Deli is a perfect old…read moreschool Brooklyn Italian deli. One of the things I miss the most from NYC is Graham Ave Meats. Perhaps the greatest deli in the world. And Oheas is just like it! With a bit of a very miniature eataly feel due to its market like setup. They've got the good coffee. Since they are so big on their Italian style coffee in Australia, I've found the best coffee is always at the Italian places. It's just darker. (ps, if your accent doesnt give away that you're American, ordering a long black every time will.) They have great sandwiches. (nowhere near graham ave, but that's like asking a common man to make a miracle happen as if he were a god.) they have they doughiest, yet flakiest croissants. And OH! The cannollis!!! The pizza is nice and is the price. It's nice to see that this place is always busy. It's great. It should be. You should come here and order brunch with a friend and sit out on the sidewalk in the sun. I am going to eat most of my meals here on the weekends.

    Firstly, let's be clear: this place looks busy. It's for two reasons: 1. there is nowhere else in…read morewalking distance, 2. They take forever to serve their customers, so people are forced to wait. It is amazing, and an inspirational story in some ways, that people who are so crap at hospitality have somehow managed to not only survive but get rich. The owners have bought up a bunch of local real estate and are trying to build a monstrosity of a development but are being fought by locals due to its inappropriate design. Therein lies a clue: They're not nice/good people, they're greedy and are just in it for the money. And that's why what they do makes sense: a range of low quality provodore produce, cheap and ordinary coffees, day old pastries. All overpriced - because you don't have a choice. Good on them, but for gods sake don't encourage this behaviour or expect any semblance of Melbournes famous hospitality in this venue. Do yourselves a favour and go to Little Deer Tracks at the train tracks end of O'Shea St, or anywhere else. These people are just bad at their jobs and shouldn't be encouraged.

    This isn't the closest fruit and veg shop to my house so I don't come here unless I happen to be on…read moreSydney Road and it happens to be a convenient time to do some vegetable shopping. The first few times I came here I thought they were rather pricey compared to my local fresh produce shop, but a recent visit has led me to change my mind. La Manna had lots of good deals going, and I managed to find tarragon there, which I hadn't found in other stores in the neighbourhood. I don't know if I just never get the nice, smiley staff member at the cash register, or if none of them smile or make an attempt to be friendly, but that's just how it goes in La Manna. It would be nice if they were nicer to me, but if it were that easy for everyone to be nicer to each other, there would probably be less fighting in the world. How on earth did I go from fruit and veg to more peace and love in the world please? I think it's time for afternoon tea break.

    Last Sunday my partner and I did something we've never done before... we awoke before 9am. But more…read moreimportantly, we got our butts out of the house and decided to stock up our fridge for the week (and stock it healthy.) La Manna is just a short walk away and is an absolutely gem of a local grocer. Piles of fresh fruits, veggies, flowers and all that other healthy stuff that you look at in the supermarket but always walk right past. You know the ones - quinoa, freekah, sunflower seeds and anything green... We stocked our basket sky high with enough veggies to feed a small family and smugly strutted out on to Sydney Road - proud smile on our face for all that we had achieved before 10am on a Sunday - and all for just a few clams! A highly recommended destination when you want the best and freshest veggies without the hefty price that can often come along with them.
