Bella Bacio Café

I've recently moved to the Lane Cove area, and while I really enjoy living here, heading down to the main restaraunt area can be a bit of a bother for a morning coffee/breakfast. There is however one tiny cafe just down the road from where I live, Bella Bacio Cafe offers a wide range of specialty coffee and brunch-style menu until 2pm.

The Location:

Located just below an apartment complex, Bella Bacio's location is not amazingly pretty, however extremely convenient for locals. There's plenty of parking out front and it's close to a bit of a nature walk, so you could even grab your coffee to-go and walk along that bush trail.

The Service/Food Quality:

I found the staff at Bella Bacio Cafe to be fairly friendly, however perhaps a little too busy for their own good. When you order food you order and pay at the same time, then seat yourself, no waiters etc... Unfortunately the gentleman who took my order was on the phone the whole time, but I understand, they seemed rather busy. The food quality more than made up for this slight hiccup on service. Beautifully presented our meal was prepared fairly quickly and tasted amazing, we got the Breakfast Bruschetta with smoked salmon, and it was rather excellent. As it was breakfast I also grabbed a Flat white coffee which was also excellent.

Final Thoughts:

Overall I really enjoyed my visit to the Bella Biaco Cafe and would highly recommend the venue to friends and family. Despite the slightly sub-par service - the food quality, convenient location and great cup of coffee more than redeemed this little breakfast spot!

TC brothers- Pizza, Kebabs & HSP

On the 10th of April I visited TC brothers on Canterbury Road, the business is well known with its area for top of the line pizzas, kebabs and HSPs. As far as unbalanced diets go for university students mine ranks amongst the best, so immediately this sparked my interest. The businesses location is very easy to locate as it faces a very high traffic road which leads in and out of Bansktown whilst also connecting many other small suburbs. Upon entering the restaurant we were immediately greeted with a friend face and a conversation sparked. The colloquialism of the staff was funny and it was clear that a sense of humor and commitment to customer satisfaction was important. The extensive menu covered all forms of meat, in styles such as pizzas, kebabs, HSPS and even offered alternative dietary options such as vegetarian. The prices ranged from as low as $8 for a basic HSP to $22 for a full sized family pizza (to which I naturally purchased...

Beachfront Bistro - Murramarang Beach

Recently I traveled roughly 4 hours south of Sydney to a quaint beach town, Durras. During this visit, there really weren't a lot of food options available, however our Airbnb hosts highly recommended the local Holiday Resort, in particular the Beachfront Bistro. We had eaten along the way so we really weren't overly hungry, but thought we'd stop in for a drink or two, and later we were tempted into a gorgeously presented dessert. The Location: Located on the beachfront of one of the most isolated and crystal clear beaches I've come across in Australia. I would say that the Restaurant's primary benefit is the gorgeous location it's situated in. The venue itself however may not be appealing to some due to it's rather integrated construction with the Hotel infrastructure. If you're looking for a place that truly feels like a "date" - this venue might not be ideal, as there were a fair few children who were staying with their parents for a c...

Encasa Restaurant

I've moved to lane cove just in the past few months, so the area is relatively new to me and I'm eager to find all the best food spots around my house. In particular stood out a tiny Spanish Tapas restaurant, Encasa. The Location: Located one the Lane Cove Village's main strip, Encasa Restaurant has a quaint charm to it's setting. There's a handful of outdoor tables setup, however the atmosphere is very vibrant within the restaurant itself. I believe during the day it functions sort of like a delicatessen, as they offer several high quality meats & cheeses in a display. The Service/Food Quality: I found the staff at Encasa to be overall very attentive however, they were completely overbooked and very crowded, as to be expected for a Friday night I suppose. We booked a table for 9pm, which we thought wouldn't be an issue since it was so late in the evening, yet the place was still completely packed. To make up for the fact that our table was not ...
