25.01.2022 WE ARE STILL OPEN. Paella. Entering yet another round of new lockdowns, we are giving it our best to keep things fresh for you all. This weeks special pays homage to the land of Spain, using traditional Calasparra rice. Infused with saffron and served with chicken, chorizo and fresh peas, this hearty dish is the perfect hibernation food for this isolation. Remember: masks, 1.5m, curfews, etc, you know the drill.... Stay well and stay safe. Phone-Up / Pick-Up - 0422318883 Text us: Name - Number - Order.

25.01.2022 RETURNING SPECIAL. Lamb Sanga. Thought we'd bring back one of our greatest hits. With a new spring twist to change it up of course. Our classic braised lamb shoulder remains the star, but this iteration also includes tahini-dressed rocket, and topped with a cumin & mint yoghurt. All in a ciabatta.

25.01.2022 NEW SPECIAL. Wild Boar Bolognese. If you havent had wild boar before, it is among some of the finest meats available. Particularly lean, yet not gamey despite its wild origins. Sourced from the Hunter Valley and prepared with the greatest of ingredients, this dish gives a unique spin on the classic Bolognese. Served with our Brother Nancy favourite Cassarece pasta, and topped with Parmesan and shaved black truffles Phone-Up / Pick-Up - 0422318883... Text us: Name - Number - Order.

23.01.2022 SPECIAL. Pumpkin Gnocchi. Made in-house and lightly pan fried, our pumpkin gnocchi is served with basil pesto, pine nuts, burnt butter, and air-dried sage.

22.01.2022 Linguine alla Vongole. A minimalistic and refined seafood pasta dish. Cooked in a parsley and white wine sauce, served together with Tiger prawns and clams. Don't be fooled by it's simplicity. This combination of flavours is a signature style common in South France pasta dishes and makes most of every ingredient to shine.

19.01.2022 NEW SPECIAL. Chicken Tacos. Our first post-lockdown special is here to ease you into dining in again. Tempura battered chicken on a bed of smashed avocado and spiced cauliflower puree, a sprinkle of grilled corn, and topped with red cabbage and carrot. A fresh and vibrant dish to get you jumping for joy, out of these restrictions. We hope that everyone has transitioned well into this new stage.

19.01.2022 WEAR YOUR MASKS. Update on restriction rules makes masks mandatory for anyone outside of their homes. Be wary that a $200 fine can be given for not having one. Of course, we're all still advised to keep up with our social distancing efforts, so be extra vigilant if you are heading out for your walks and remember to keep well spaced out outside once you have placed your order.... Let's all do our part for the great of our community.

15.01.2022 NEW SPECIAL. Chorizo & Cheese Croquettes. Grab a serving of these bad boys. A little decadent and naughty, but heck we're in lockdown again so why not treat yourself. Made to enjoy with ones fingers, these croquettes come with our pickles, house-made garlic aioli, and salad. Some deep fried goodness that will surely quell those covid cravings....

12.01.2022 Our very own master barista John (self-proclaimed) was featured in this article on medium.com. Here he goes through the method to his apparent madness of coffee-making. From technique to his philosophy, John went on to give lessons to a complete beginner on how to make the perfect coffee. Give it a read, and be sure to send any coffee-related questions his way next time you see him. Im sure he would love to talk your ear off.

Our ox cheek is slowly braised to melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and is served with celeriac remoulade, apple salad, and topped with onion rings for a satisfying crunch.

12.01.2022 DECAF. Barista's scoffing at decaf? It's a common trend. This might just be an uncommon post though, because our decaf from @dukes_coffee is one that we are proud to serve and stands above so many. With smooth notes of almonds and cocoa, it will satisfy those cravings if you're looking to avoid the buzz. .... . . #supportlocal #weareopen #weareopenmelbourne #wefo #brothernancy #food #instafood #foodofinstagram #foodie #foodlover #foodpassion #foodlife #cafe #cafelife #melbournefoods #melbournecafe #melbournerestarants #essexstreet #westfootscray #maribyrnong #maribyrnongcafe #cityofmaribyrnong See more

10.01.2022 Smoked Salmon Rillette Sandwich. We might be back to lockdown, but that doesn't mean we can't still flex our creative cuisine muscles. So what is a Rillette you ask? It is a cooking method similar to a confit, where a meat is seasoned and slow-cooked and commonly served as a pate. Our variation is served fresh on sourdough, with avocado, radicchio and Sauce Gribiche - a traditional French mayonnaise made from a hard boiled egg-yolk emulsion. Possibly the fanciest sandwich the...re ever was. Phone-Up / Pick-Up - 0422318883 Text us: Name - Number - Order.
