Spencer Guthrie
Sounding more like a character from Pride and Prejudice than a Mod Oz restaurant in Newtown’s tattoo-central, Spencer Guthrie is full of little surprises. And the buck doesn’t stop at the name. The seedling of two Sydney thoroughbreds – Troy Spencer ex-L’etoile and Oliver Guthrie from Lucio’s (hence, the name) – this is one King...

Joe Black X Marks the Spot
Somewhat of an enigma, Joe Black X is a tiny hole in the wall café wedged in a small opening on the side of a heritage listed building on King Street. There’s no signage, no seating, no website or telephone – just a curbside blackboard reading “coffee made with love” scribbled in chalk. With its...
