IIKO Mazesoba
The cold, rainy weather gotcha feelin’ down, honey?

DEVON Cafe
Devon Cafe had one of Sydney’s favourite truffle menus last year and they’re certainly living up to expectations. In 2020, Devon is dressing up a student favourite and putting a bougie spin on your average Mie Goreng. Throw it back to your uni days with super duper fresh egg noodles topped with soft eggs, crunchy chicharron and porcini bumbu with sliced truffle slices. If that ain’t to your liking, Devon’s also shaving truffle on everything from mouthwatering wagyu omurice, delicious toasties and cheesy lasagnas.
Oh, decision-making ain’t your forte? No problemo! Sit down for their Truffle Brunch Experience. This truffle extravaganza unlocks a spread of sando fingers, salted egg truffle fries, wagyu steak, mie goreng, sea salt ice cream with truffle honey sponge and a gorgeous gianduja truffle latte.

This winter, their truffle menu features some seriously delectable (and gorgeous!) dishes. Standouts include their Truffle Unagi Foie Gras Bowl with Kabayaki grilled eel, Masterchef-level scrambled egg and fresh WA truffle. For anyone carb-loading their way through the year, you’ll love their Black Truffle Pappardelle with crispy pancetta, bacon, confit egg yolk, pecorino romano and fresh truffle. It’s flavour overload!

Monkey’s Corner
Basque Cheesecake has taken over our socials! Always well ahead of the pack, Moneky’s Corner is one of the few spots you can get your hands on the cake in Sydney. For a limited time only, they’re serving up their cheesecake with a layer of sliced black truffle for some real OTT taste and texture. What legends. The cheescake’s scorched top and gooey cream cheese centre is already decadent on its own but the extra truffle slices makes each bite taste just that bit more luxurious. You’ll really miss out if you don’t get your hands on one this winter!
