Breakfast & Lunch Sat-Sun 9.30am-3.30pm;
96 Kepos Street (cnr Phillip Street), East Redfern Tel 9698 6000 This cutely named restaurant sits on a corner tucked away in a leafy part of East Redfern. It’s a funky little space with a small main dining room, a smaller rear enclosed courtyard and a couple of pavement tables under the trees. Despite the humble surrounds and fairly cramped quarters, the food is suprisingly good. An entrée selection of Middle Eastern dips is pleasant, but the standout dish is barramundi fillets steamed in a bag with a fragrant Asian broth and baby bok choy. Service can be a bit slow, but persevere for dessert and never mind what your mother told you - this is one time you should say yes to strangers with candy.
Starters are $12.50,

 Score 14/20 "You could happily spend all day here, including dinner, but weekends start with a brunch bruschetta laden with prosciutto and balsamic mushrooms, or smoked salmon and horseradish crème, assured coffee and service as bright as the sunshine." Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2008 Breakfast Top 10  Score 14/20 "This former shopfront is home to an engaging eatery. The eclectic charm of comforting wood tones, candle-lit tables and burgundy walls and the warm welcome from staff; not to mention the food, which is consistently appetising." Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2007  Score 14/20 "The colours are bold and the name is cheeky, the service chirpy and the food striking. So take something perky or quirky to quaff, chill out in the courtyard or cosy up at the front, and let the pleasures wash all over you." Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide BYO Top 10 2006  "This smartly named restaurant is newly refurbished with banquettes in the front room and other comfy changes." Sydney Eats 2006
