We have been regulars at It's Thai for some years now. The food and service are excellent. The Staff are friendly. The decor is lovely and authentic. When we are out dining in other suburbs with friends at other Thai restaurants we judge them by the the standard It's Thai has set. I would advise making a booking on Friday and Saturday nights as the locals know how good it is :-) My favourite dish is the fresh whole coconut with seafood in it. They also do take away. Some years ago this restaurant was featured on The Sydney Good Weekend on channel 7.

Approximate cost: $20.00

We have been going to Sweet Lily's in the Italian Forum for close on 9 years now. We travel approximately 13kms each way to get to Leichhardt, but it is well worth the trip!
The variety of fresh cakes is amazing, I took my Family there for a bithday celebration afternoon tea and they had trouble deciding what to order because there were so many yummy things to consider.
The service is good and the Staff friendly. The same lady has owned it for the last 9 years at least and bakes many of the cakes on offer on the premises.
I can recommend the pavlova, caramel bannana pie, caramel pecan meringue, Tiramisu and Cheescake just to name a few.
The cakes are served with cream and ice cream and are a generous size portion.
Washed down with a cappuccino you need to see to believe, it makes it the ideal place to go for coffee and cake.

Approximate cost: $10.00
