LOCATIONCrown Street, close to Oxford Street, Surry Hill, ten minutes from the CBD.
DETAILSThis great little BYO restaurant is intimate and friendly, and has fiercely loyal regulars who will attest to its charm. Upon entering the light and spacious dining room of Yipiyiyo, the first thing you notice is the décor. Plump, leopard skin cushions furnish the seats creating a comfy atmosphere that contrasts nicely with the crisp, linen-laiden tables.
FOOD & BEVERAGEThe menu features many chilli-based dishes for the more adventurous gourmet traveller, and the ‘Kickass’ beef chilli with avocado salsa, black beans and tortillas is not to be missed. For the extra keen chilli-phile try the passion fruit and chilli sorbet. For the more conservative diner, there is an array of delicious options. Try the grilled barramundi with sweet potato skordalia, chervil asparagus and fennel salad, or vegetarians will be well-rewarded with the wild mushroom risotto. The orange, chilli colour scheme goes well with the warm and friendly service and lively cabaret shows get the room bouncing on Tuesday, Wednesday nights and Thursdays. Arrive at 7.30pm for a 9.00pm start to see
Mile Heidi in
Branson with the Stars.
