  • Toad BakeryCamberwell

    “Toad's creativity in the field is refreshing and despite the cost of butter soaring to almost crisis levels, they never skimp. In a conversation with the lovely owners, Rebecca and Oliver, they admitted that butter was their chief expenditure after staffing costs and it shows. Their Hawaiian spin on a Danish with ham hock and pineapple has been a firm favourite. RIP Frog, long live Toad.”

  • Zeret KitchenCamberwell

    “Tafe Beleynah, the matriarch of this unassuming Ethiopian restaurant, will encourage you to order from the sharing platter, with a view to reordering your favourite options. The platters are arranged on injera - a fermented flatbread designed to grip and dip at the various lashings of vegan and meat stews. Cutlery is not provided as standard. Eat with your hands, get tactile; feed yourself and each other.”
