Other published opinions
The Age Cheap Eats 2008 "It's no surprise that Edna's Place does a :. cracking trade - like its devotees, its appeal L is multi-generational"
The Age Matt Preston, 21-1-2008 "I've come to realise that this Ashkenazi cooking is just one side of Jewish cuisine. To this must be added Sephardi dishes as well as a scree of recipes that reflect kosher interpretations of dishes from countries where Jews have settled. This culinary complexity makes eating at a cafe such as Edna's on Glenhuntly Road especially interesting. Owners Edna and Olesh ran a 270-seater restaurant in Israel and while the menu is definitely more Sephardic in that the flavours are largely Middle Eastern or Mediterranean, it's perhaps more accurately described as modern Israeli."
The Age Cheap Eats 2007 "The fluoro sign on the front window proclaims: 'Shakshooka Now!' ('shakshooka' roughly translates as egg casserole). Inside, Edna's resembles the kitchen of the continental greataunt everyone wishes they had."
The Age Cheap Eats 2006 Edna's is a sunny cafe crammed with knick-knacks, regulars and their prams. Her menu features Jewish staples ... as well as creative takes on cafe basics
