AMAZING ITALIAN This is a new spot, very small and hidden around the back of 191 Smith Street. Rosamond opened in April 2017. They serve delicious home made pasta and great drinks at very reasonable prices. We feel like we've been on an Italian holiday when we visit Rosamond!

Our favourite Vietnamese Bakery! Very cheap, filling and fresh. There's often a line out the door but it's a short wait and very worthwhile. Try the eggplant roll. It's amazing.
