With all the opening action around Double Bay it's easy to forget it was on the equivalent of hospitality life support just a few years ago.

With newbies Fish Face, Chinta Kechil and Aboutlife bringing new customers to the suburb, there is also some good news for one of DB's landmark sites.

Word is a restaurant fitout has started at the back-lane building where Lucio's spin-off Arte e Cucina, and Zigolini's before it, traded.

Locals say its owner has hospitality experience and has nabbed some discarded accoutrements from a former venue in Kings Cross.
