Lawson's Grove Deli, South Yarra

Hidden treasure cafe

Start the treasure hunt around the lush streets of South Yarra and you may come across a hidden gem, Lawson’s Grove Deli. Entrapped between art deco apartments and visible only by its ever-changing signage on the street front, Lawson's serves up an all-day affair of fresh, chef-experimented dishes. Don’t miss the fluffy lemony ricotta cakes with a generous dollop of fresh lemon-infused cream, or perhaps their pizza, perfectly crisp bread pita topped with spicy salami, oozing with mozzarella cheese. With a limited supply of takeaway meals, whether it’s 500g of delish meatballs with pasta or a hearty, lip-splattering zucchini soup, Lawson’s is probably best kept a secret – ssshhh!
