There’s nothing sinister about this cafe, which is run by two Italian brothers who were born and raised in Manly (and their mum cooking out back). Enter the home-style southern Italian food and rich Italian coffee, which should take care of the rest. Jo’s own blend, Escobar, will keep ‘caffiends’ sated with its strong, smooth hit, while the pastas and panini on offer are just the way mama used to make them. (Review by SBS food)
