Actually that's quite a coincidence, as my partner is good friend with one of Fratelli Paradiso's owners and we'll definitely be heading there for dinner one night this week! :) Crabbe Hole sound good too... and Bodega seems a firm favourite with the locals so I hope we can squeeze it in! - must get a bit of a schedule happening or I don't know how we'll fit it all in!

Sopra is the cafe at Fratelli Fresh and its fantastic as well. A Tavola is fantastic on Victoria Street, Darlinghurst (sorry Iain & Nina but Unas is so awful !!). Another must visit is a tiny cafe by the swimming pool at the Icebergs. its called the Crabbe Hole - one of the best locations in Sydney and yummy food! Bodega is great! Toko is great for sushi - Surry Hills as well. Have fun! hi Lucy, try Fratelli in Potts Point – its different to Fratelli Fresh. Sopra is the cafe at Fratelli Fresh and its fantastic as well.
