The Archway Food Precinct Welcomes Two New Eateries
Fancy some Indian-style street food? Or perhaps something a little healthy and organic?
Next time you’re feeling peckish down near Southern Cross Station, do yourself a favour and pay a visit to The Archway. Home to the likes of 5 & Dime Bagels, T by Luxbite and Altius Coffee, this recently opened Flinders Lane food hub is already a primo lunchtime destination, and now they’ve added two more tasty vendors to the fold.
Delhi Streets is a multigenerational affair, run by Charan Singh along with his restaurateur father Resham. Inspired by India’s bustling street food culture, the pair have opted away from heavy curries in favour of samosas, rice biryani and a selection of burgers and wraps, including one made with patties of spiced chickpeas and battered potatoes. They’ve also got sweet options, from hand-made Kulfi ice-cream pops to chocolate naan. To top things off, they’re fully licensed, serving Indian beers such as Kingfisher and Maharaja, with a spice-infused cocktail menu apparently on the way.
Those looking for a healthier option down that end of the city can also find sanctuary at Hunters Roots. Husband and wife duo Jeffrey and Kerry Chew are serving a variety of fresh, organic breakfast and lunch options, including coconut yogurt parfait, homemade muesli slices and the intriguingly named ‘raw snickers bar.’ Accoutrements include almond milk, vegan coconut ice-cream, raspberry chia jam and cacao hazelnut ganache, all of which are made in-house. They also offer made to order pressed juices, to help wash everything down.
The Archway’s final tenant, Mr Huang Jin Taiwanese Dumplings, is expected to open in the next couple of weeks — as if you weren’t already spoiled for choices.
The Archway is located at 517 Flinders Lane. For more information visit The Archway’s website.
