This quaint yet contemporary Italian-style bistro serves a selection of panini, antipasti and salads with slow-cooked and entirely organic ingredients. Those with time to spare linger over a panino of chicken, roasted red pepper, pancetta and asiago or a slow-roasted lamb, radicchio and mint mayo sandwich on grilled basil loaf. Those looking for something crunchy are tempted by a salad of fennel, arugula, goat cheese and wine vinegar. Homemade tiramisù, biscotti, chocolate espresso cheesecake and chocolate-raspberry mousse lure those with room for more. Unlicensed. Mains $5–$11.
