Devonshire Tea	Not offered everywhere, but if you're fortunate enough you can't sometimes go past your favourite tea with scones that comes with yummy jam and cream. (I know my father in-law can't)	Cafes
Spaghetti and Meatballs	Traditional Italian dish, with meatballs made of minced pork and beef, herbs and minced onion and garlic, and served in a rich thick tomato based ragu sauce. Can be served sometimes with shredded fresh basil or oregano and shavings of parmesan. As with carbonara, it tends to be served with garlic bread and side salad.	Italian
Lamb cutlets with garlic and rosemary	Usually on every Italian menu, small trimmed lamb chops or cutlets are served steeped in fresh rosemary and garlic and pan fried or grilled. Served with sauté potatoes and vegetables, it is a hearty plate of food and delicious flavours. Tender pink lamb is enhanced by the earthy rosemary and garlic.	Italian
Minestrone Soup	The classic and renowned Italian soup, comprising small pasta shapes, a rich chicken stock and finely diced vegetables such as celery, onions, tomatoes, carrots beans and herbs. Created in Ancient Roman times this soup is now served in many different ways, some finely and others much more chunky and hearty. A sprinkling of parmesan and a good basket of bread makes this really filling.	Italian
Napoletana pasta sauce	An amazing vegetarian italian option. Crushed tomato, onion, garlic, basil and parmesan. Sounds simple but bursting with lots of flavour.	Italian
Osso Buco	A dish invented in Ancient Roman Times and perfected over the years to a more sophisticated Italian meal, consisting of cross-cut veal shanks, braised in red wine, onions, celery and carrots and served with a gremolata on the top (optional).	Italian
Bruschetta	Delicious slices of bread, rubbed with garlic and tomato and seasoned before grilling. Various toppings are served, the most popular being diced tomatoes and red onion with finely chopped garlic and basil. Can also be served with a pesto topping, and sometimes with roasted aubergine and mushrooms. Usually a starter, but can be purchased as a main course.	Italian
Big Breakfast	The famous Big Breakfast – people either love it or hate it and it can vary from place to place and also in cost. A normal Big Breakfast consists of a couple of rashers of bacon, a couple of sausages, fried bread, 2 eggs any style, grilled tomatoes and/or baked beans. Toast will also be offered or even buttered bread.	Cafes
Salads	We all know Salads are a “healthy” alternative, but in the past 5 years Salads have become very interesting. You'll find a number of salads options from the traditional Garden, Thai Beef and at some of the more trendy places you can find interesting options such as Baby beetroot salad, Pear and walnut salad and whatever else they can come up these days that tastes good.	Cafes
Chianti	In rustic Italian restaurants, you can still see empty bottles of Chianti grouped together and hanging around the bar or ceiling! Old Chianti bottles used to be covered in a basket weave, and often used to house a candle on your table, so that the wax dripped down the outside of the bottle! The wine itself is red and relatively light in comparison to heavier Italian wines such as Barolo. Chianti is produced primarily in the beautiful region of Tuscany, and is eminently drinkable!	Italian
Soave	Another popular wine, this white wine is produced in the Veneto region of Italy, around the city of Verona, home to many Shakespeare plays! It is comparatively dry and was once the ‘in’ drink in the 1970’s but was overtaken by Pinot Grigiot towards the 1980’s	Italian
Peroni	The most popular of beers served in Italian restaurants, it is not the cheapest one around but still sells more than any other. 5% alcohol, a slightly ‘hoppy’ taste but very refreshing when served in iced cold frosted glasses.	Italian
Coffee	There's no other way to put it, Coffee is huge in Australia and the Coffee offered at Cafes ranges from the standard cup up to World Class. We recommend checking the comments and ratings to find the best drop in town.	Cafes
Tea	Unless you find a tea house the Tea offered in Cafes around Australia is pretty standard. You'll find a selection of English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Camomille, Peppermint and Green. Tea is always great in the afternoon or night with less caffine and it's calming affects.	Cafes
