Designed by Al & Co Haus of Design, the space is a naturally lit refuge, filled with shiny mirrors, Scandi-inspired blonde timbers and lush pot plants. To start your day right, tuck into the quinoa salsa — asparagus, sweet corn kernels and avocado, topped with a fried egg and shallots on organic sourdough — or a baked field mushroom layered with crispy pancetta, poached egg, rocket, balsamic and parmesan on organic sourdough.
Sydney’s humble Parramatta is going through quite the development and we are quite impressed by Willo which has opened on Smith Street. From tan leather seating, marble-like textures and chromatic hues, to a spacious bar area and an arched open-style kitchen around the dining room, we quickly notice this isn’t your usual restaurant in the area.
Demand has seen independent newcomers such as Mediterranean fine diner Willo and parkside brunch spot Misc open recently. Larger hospitality groups are also jumping on the opportunity. In the past month, both Mamak and Al Aseel have opened in Sydney's second city.
