Now you don't have to
truck across to Northbridge for a hearty bowl of
pho
(Vietnamese noodle soup). The hip
Mama Tran also does excellent coffee, fresh rice-paper rolls, and Asian salads. Grab a
spot on one of the big shared tables and order up a storm including plump
banh mi ga
(Vi-
etnamese chicken baguettes).

Thu, to midnight Fri; )
In a laneway off Murray St, Tiger, Tiger has a shabby-chic interior
that isn't as popular as its outdoor setting. The free wi-fi's a drawcard, but the food is also
excellent - all the regular breakfast favourites, along with pasta, curry, tarts, soups and
baguettes on the lunch menu. Table service kicks in at lunchtime; before that you'll need
to order at the counter.
Cabin Fever
(88 Barrack St, Bon Marche Arcade; snacks $5-10; 7am-5pm Mon-Fri, 10am-5pm Sat; )
Hidden away in

also by free wi-fi, homestyle baking and excellent coffee. And just when you thought this
part of town wasn't very interesting.

this place asks for payment by donation. An eclectic mix of hippies, Hindus and the just
