August 16, 2008: Robbies Stein

31/12/2012: Robbies Stein has unopen down.

breakfast at Minimo, Michael in addition to I spent a brace of hours running errands along Sydney Rd. Before hopping on the tram dorsum home, it was also tempting to halt at Robbies Stein for a small, slowly lunch. This turned out to move a keen sentiment - unbeknownst to us, Robbies (I wishing they'd purpose an apostrophe) offers a hit of 'grazing plates'. Even better, at that spot are enough of vegetarian ones. How to pick out betwixt polenta, gyoza, dukkah-spiced eggplant chips, haloumi, crumbed olives, dips?

No ordinary white buttons, an assortment of mushrooms were crumbed, deep-fried in addition to served alongside aioli ($8.50). They were exquisite. Juicy but never soggy, in addition to and so flavoursome. I couldn't behave to sully them alongside the (really rather good) aioli.

The lemon, lime in addition to bitters also deserves a shout-out; made alongside mouth-puckering fresh lemon juice, it's the perfect antidote to all that fried food. Robbies Stein also offers a few meal-sized dishes in addition to I withdraw heed they create a hateful lemon tart, but I tin personally in addition to really enthusiastically recommend them for your mid-afternoon grazing needs.
