The Age Cheap Eats 2008 "Gingerbread men line up for the picking, while pink, lolly-faced cupcakes huddle together, aware their time is almost up"

The Age Cheap Eats 2007 "Why is this unassuming, lunch-bar-like place such a favourite with locals? It's about what goes on behind the counter. Friendly staff trade in buttery handmade pies and pastries, tuna and vegetable patties, salads and sweet things, supported by quality juices."

The Age Cheap Eats 2005 "WHO could resist a teeny weeny lemon pie, topped with a pointy wizard hat of meringue? Or a baby flourless orange cake lightly dusted with sugar? Not the regulars, who peep into the glass sweets cabinet before they even look at the savoury offerings"

The Age,A2,26/6/04,Matt Preston,'There's a decent lasagne and always something gluten free.If that's all too virtuous,check out the pastries,which range from intense little lemon tarts and gooey caramel slices to sticky date puddings and spongy light mini pavlovas.'

The Age,Epicure, 1/6/04,Matt Preston,'They come for the great-value and modern cafe meals she is serving.One word of advice-Monument is trained as a pastry chef,so,unless you live by the motto "life is uncertain,eat dessert first",avert your eyes from the bulging cabinet of sweet stuff that will confront you on arrival.'
