Grinders Giancarlo coffee. 110 Alfred St, Milsons Point. Another recommendation from my contact page. This place is significantly raising the bar for interior design in Milsons Point. When I first walked past, I was worried that I had the wrong place – surely this place was a restaurant and not a cafe? Step inside, however, …

Long Black Organic Cafe, Dulwich Hill
Belaroma Organic coffee. 2/428 Canterbury Road, Dulwich Hill. Organics is the theme here: they have a lot of all-organic choices on the menu, and a number of tasty home-made cakes (gluten-free) to choose from too. Kid-friendliness is certainly there: there are some high-chairs on offer if you’re looking for them, and they even have toys for …
Petty Cash Cafe, Marrickville
Bills Beans coffee. 68 Victoria Rd, Marrickville. On the edge of Enmore Park, near the play equipment, is this character-filled spot. A colourful band of staff work hard at keeping the orders coming and cleaning the place up where necessary. The furniture is diverse – each table setting comes from somewhere else, which gives the …
Lisbon Love Patisserie, Panania
Caffe Molinari coffee. 188 Tower Rd, Panania. Portugese tarts and a range of pastries and cakes, with some savory choices, on brioche. I try the ham and cheese brioche, toasted. It has a slight sweetness to it, and a light texture: seems a promising sign for the other pastries. The Portugese tarts are very good: …
white horse coffee, sutherland
White horse coffee. 137 Flora St, Sutherland. It’s taken me a long time to get to visit this place when it was open. I’ve seen its shuttered doors on three separate occasions. They’re only open on weekdays, and they have a tendency to be closed over the Christmas holidays. Walk in past the outdoor seating, …
Pulse espresso bar, Kogarah
Morgan’s handcrafted coffee. Shop 4, 26 Belgrave St. With its proximity to St George Public and Private hospitals, there are more doctors and nurses here calling in for breakfast or lunch than you might be used to, but as a break from the in-house catering, this is a welcome retreat. Choose salads, sandwiches or burgers, …
Reflections from a walk
Took Puff on an epic walk in the stroller around our suburb today, the park, play equipment, farm animals, food; the works; so that Kel could sleep for a while in between feeds. Then, when we were praying tonight before bed, and we were talking about his day, the one thing he remembered – and …
Mecca Espresso, Ultimo
Mecca Espresso coffee. 646 Harris St, Ultimo. Open a week now, but in some ways you’d never know it. Yes, there’s no signage yet, and there are no hours on display, but the interior is ready to go, the food menu is up and running, and the coffee has been pouring freely this whole time. …
