Inspired by New York, tashas is a restaurant chain founded by Natasha Sideris. They have several locations across the country, and the branch in the courtyard of The Zone @ Rosebank is a favorite among these. Every store has unique decor: tashas Rosebank is bright and open, and features an outdoor space with café tables, enough plants to populate a forest, and books hanging from the ceiling.

Their menu includes breakfast classics such as eggs benedict with all the trimmings and maple bacon flapjacks, an interesting array of sandwiches with unexpected toppings, a range of pastas, satisfying staples such as lemon chicken, steak tagliata, and an aubergine, beef, and yoghurt crumble, and baked goodies. They also have smoothies, a selection of mineral waters, cocktails, and all manner of interesting coffees and teas. The perfect spot for a weekend outing, brunch, a lunch treat, or dinner with friends.
