I used to roll my eyes at the word ‘organic’.
But lately, I’ve been treating myself to all things home grown, free range and pesticide free.
What prompted the change?
While not everyone is a believer, I do think that organic food tastes better than the non-organic variety. It reminds me of how great food used to taste when I was a child. And it’s not as expensive as most might think!

The Organic Produce Cafe in Surry Hills has become a favourite haunt for me. There’s an all day breakfast selection, as well as a tempting lunch menu filled with hearty soups and sandwiches.

Organic Produce Cafe makes a fantastic Risotto Al Fungi. The highlight of the risotto is definitely in the mix of mushrooms, which are garnished with spring onions, rosemary and parmesan to create a very earthy and rich dish.

My only gripe with Organic Produce Cafe is that you do need to wait quite a fair while for your order. The last time I was here, the wait time was close to 40 minutes. So I wouldn’t recommend it for diners looking for a quick bite!
