The best cafe for raw, slow-food, vegan delights. Try the "chocolate caramel slice" - which has no sugar, dairy or gluten, but somehow tastes better than the real thing.

Sit outside on the street and have an espresso martini. Better for cocktails, bubbles and being seen than actually for eating, although it's not too bad at that either.

An iconic Italian restaurant that's extremely popular and buzzing. They don't take bookings, but try for an outside table if the weather's nice. They don't have it on the menu, but I love ordering a puttanesca pizza.
