When craving something a little fun, flirt with a taste of Berlin’s underground grunge at Sydney’s uber trendy café, District Marrickville. With floor to ceiling front windows offering views into the red fluorescent interior, it’s hard to resist walking into the alternate space styled with animated street art murals, black floor tiling and tunes filling the air; creating a fantasy vibe to bask in whilst indulging in coffee and creative eats. Step out of your comfort zone and try the Magic Mushies – four types of mushroom with leeks, baby spinach and sage, (add the truffled eggs), while satisfying lunch options include the Sage Rage with smoked trout, salsa verde, herb oil, a rosti and chevre, or perhaps the black caramel ham “sanga,” with Dijon mayo, pickles, cheddar and a smoky BBQ glaze.
