They can order anything they don't have in stock.

Great asian food at a reasonable price. They have many pre-prepared dishes to select or they can cook fresh food in a short time. They do an excellent nasi goreng packed full of vegetables.

Approximate cost: $10

Great Mexican food in a warm friendly family environment.
On Tuesdays they have 3 courses for $22 but you have to book early. They have fantastic home made ice-cream and for those who like margaritas they have happy hours with fish bowl size margaritas.

Approximate cost: $20

Fast, delicious and well priced pizza and pasta. You can dine in (limited seating) or take away. Their lunchtime pizza and pasta meal is so large you normally have to share it with a friend or get some of it in a take away container (for about an extra 50c).
They have 3 types of pasta and mini lunchtime pizzas already made up, so if you're after a really quick lunch that's the way to go.
The can make up pizzas and pasta in less than 10 mins - their spaghetti bolognaise is the best in Hobart by far!

Approximate cost: $10

Fantastic shop for tropical or marine fish. This is a family owned business and they really know their stuff. Although they are not the cheapest, they have one of the best range of fish in Hobart as they special in the harder to find species. If they don't have what you're after they will try to order it in.
