Norma's Deli

Walking down the stairs into Norma's, you're immediately transported to a charming and busy Greek deli and sandwich shop. If you can peel yourself away from watching the bakers work their magic in the open-planned kitchen, choose your delights from behind the glass window of glorious treats.

Honestly, between the buttery croissants, baklava, drool-worthy creations and a standout breakfast and lunch menu, it's like picking a favourite child. Don't forget to bring a bag for all the olives, spreads and goodies on the shelves.

Fabbrica is a lowkey and no-fuss eatery and pasta shop, tucked away under street level in Sydney's busy CBD. Pop in for a visit and peruse their curated wine cellar, fresh pasta made daily, deli sandwiches, sauces, canned goods, breads and cheeses. Their pasta packs are a midweek favourite and should be considered a staple.

Salumerie 

Fresh, handmade bread, deli meats and cheese - Salumerie is slinging the holy trifecta and we can't think of anywhere we'd rather be come lunchtime. Shop deli bits and pieces to-go or settle in for a freshly made sandwich and coffee.

Our picks are the Napoli (prosciutto di parma, rocket, stracciatella, shaved parmesan, olive oil EVOO) and vodka polpette (polpette in vodka ragu sauce, buffalo ricotta, rocket, shaved parmesan, eggplant a fungheto). 

Hang tight for nights at Salumerie coming soon! 

Sitchu Tip: Get there early to secure the goods - you're not the only salami lover in town!
