Sandwich lovers should make 46 Mittsu their first stop. On the menu, you’ll discover a delectable selection of hefty sandwiches, all featuring a smorgasbord of ingredients tucked into a buttered brioche bun. We highly recommend the Daddy Belly (braised pork belly, pickled radish and spicy mushrooms), BEC (bacon, egg and cheese) and Mean Greens (broccolini, burrata, avocado and spicy tomato jam).

Dearborn

Originally a private-home-dining concept that pivoted to selling granola during the pandemic, Dearborn now plies homemade sourdough toast, granola bowls, drinks and a changing selection of creative breakfast dishes (only on Saturdays) from a cosy brick-and-mortar space. Nosh on your goodies in the limited outdoor seating area, and be sure to snag a bag of their famous handcrafted granola to take home with you.

They keep things simple here, with the menu split into black and white (milk-based) offerings. We suggest sampling a filter brew crafted with the latest line-up of coffee beans. These are sourced from prime coffee-growing regions in the likes of Ethiopia, El Salvador and Honduras and are roasted in-house.
