Modern Australian
One of Newtown's best beloved, Varga has a noteworthy dedication to sustainable, organic food (Eveleigh smoked ocean trout, Northern NSW pasture-fed Black Angus beef, Byron Bay hinterland eggs and chicken) and an equal commitment to coffee (organic, Fairtrade Morgan's Coffee). A boisterous, full-bodied latte ($3.50) with hints of caramel is quite at home with Varga's excellent bacon and egg roll, singing with melted cheddar, spinach and a killer coffee-smoked chilli sauce. Frappes are fab, the beats are cool, and how could you not like milkshakes served 'in a big ass tin'.
