Mat Lindsay Menu at Two Good Co Cafe
Ester's Mat Lindsay is in charge of the guest menu at Two Good Co's Darlinghurst cafe for the month of October.
Overview
In 2022, beloved social enterprise Two Good Co opened a cafe and convenience store in Darlinghurst's Yirranma Place. The venue provides Sydneysiders with tasty breakfast and lunch options, as well as products from local ethically minded businesses such as The Bread & Butter Project, Kua Coffee and Gelato Messina — all while raising funds to help Two Good's goal of supporting vulnerable women by providing pathways out of crisis living.
Each month at the cafe, the crew brings in a well-known and well-loved chef or culinary team to create special one-off menu items. Kylie Kwong, Maggie Beer, Peter Gilmore and Matt Moran have all been on curating duties in the past, and the month of October 2023 sees the pleasure fall on food writer and award-winning restaurateur Mat Lindsay.
Lindsay is known for his acclaimed restaurants, Ester and Poly, as well as his ever-popular cookbook, Ester. A purveyor of all things simple, seasonal and flavourful, Lindsay brings an inventive approach to Two Good Co's monthly menu.
Available throughout October, the menu features two no-fuss lunch items and a little sweet treat. Item number one is an elevated tuna melt, which packs a punch. Linsday's take on the familiar fave features melted cheese and tuna paired with cornichons, capers and chilli sandwiched between two slices of thick white toast.
Also available: a fresh cauliflower, egg and upland cress salad boasting slices of crisp green apple, celery, creamy mustard, punchy paprika and topped with an apple cider vinegar dressing — perfect for a light spring meal.
Rounding out the offerings is a decadent lunchtime dessert — indulge in a slice of burnt cheesecake for smooth, velvety goodness with balanced sweetness and a touch of smoke.
If you want to sample the menu, just head over to 262 Liverpool Street at some point this month.
