EATING
With the exception of the phalanx of upmarket restaurants on Woolloomooloo's Finger Wharf, these 'burbs don't
have any harbourside razzle-dazzle. Instead you'll find a buzzy set of small bistros and cafes with heaps of cha-
risma. Tiny Llankelly Place has a clutch of hip microcafes.

Beautiful all-day eggy breakfasts, scrummy muffins, fresh juices and top-notch coffee are
the staples of this chilled-out cafe, set in a tree-lined plaza. The people-watching's not bad
either. Check your foam; this place is known for its 'latte art'.

(10 Llankelly Pl; mains $8-12; breakfast & lunch; Kings Cross) If you're wearing a flat cap, sprout-
ing a beard and obsessed by coffee, chances are you'll recognise this tiny room as your
spiritual home in the Cross. The food's limited to sandwiches, salads and such - tasty and
uncomplicated.

HUGO'S BAR PIZZA$$

( 9332 1227; www.hugos.com.au ; 33 Bayswater Rd; mains $24-36; dinner Tue-Sun; Kings Cross) This
indoor-outdoor neighbourhood nook has long been seducing pizza fans with its delicious
discs and home-style Italian fare; try the puttanesca pizza. The marble-fronted bar and
sunken velvet lounge spell luxury, but the menu won't break the bank. If you feel like a
drink, head to Hugo's Lounge Bar upstairs.
ITALIAN
LL WINE & DINE$$

( 9356 8393; www.llwineanddine.com.au ; 42 Llankelly Pl; mains $29-33; lunch Thu-Sun, dinner Tue-Sun;
Kings Cross) The progression from cock tales to cocktails at this former porn shop and illegal
gambling den has been dramatic, and the result is much more savoury (in both senses of the
word). LL may borrow its double consonant from Welsh, but it's the flavours of China,
Japan and Southeast Asia that dominate. The weekend yum cha is excellent.
