from the fray on a quiet section of James St, Sitar occupies a lovely old white weather-
board Queenslander. Step inside for trad curries, dahls, naans and tandoori dishes, includ-
ing plenty of gluten-free and vegetarian options. Love the psychedelic sitar player paint-
ing above the door.

Kuan Yin is a small, garish BYO place with
faux-wood panelling and a bamboo-lined ceiling. Food-wise it's flavourful vegetarian
noodle soups, dumplings and mock-meat rice dishes. Try the tofu salad. Great tea selec-
tion, too.

Hiding down a tiny lane off Ann St, Flamingo is a buzzy
little bolt-hole cafe with black and pink walls, a boho vibe and cheerfully profane wait
staff. Winning vegie burgers and banana-and-date loaf.
