My first experience at Newtown’s Kammadhenu was a few years ago, when they first opened on this manic Inner West eating strip. I remember they were desperately quiet at first and as [...]

When it comes to restaurant favourites, this place is up there in my books. No, you won’t find any chefs hat awards, pressed linen or a sommelier at your disposal, this one is great for me because it just doesn’t even try. Located at the arse-end of King Street where the hoards never seem to [...]
