Deli death match
Ever woken up in the middle of a reality TV show?
High density Darlo – with at least half a century’s reputation for great cafes and good food – has suddenly gone deli mad.
The skeletal, winding road that’s occasionally Macleay Street, sometimes Darlinghurst Road and eventually Victoria Street, has mushroomed with fancy providores.

Here’s one of the originals: the Continental Delicatessan on Macleay.
They’ve exploded in the past year, Fratelli Fresh has even moved in.
Plus every Saturday morning is the Kings Cross farmers’ market.
You feel spoiled, with so many great, independent shops selling delicious produce. But is it sustainable, can they all last?
Hey, what do you think of the new-ish Pellagio, rescued by the dude from A Tavola?
It’s pretty cool you’re in the middle of a deli “death match”. The choices!
