Little Petra

You're walking down Hills Road towards the station when you spot Little Petra tucked away with its warm lighting spilling onto the pavement. Inside, it's intimate without being cramped—the kind of place where they're clearly cooking with intention rather than following a formula. The menu reads like a love letter to Levantine food: expect silky hummus that puts supermarket versions to shame, properly charred kebabs, and seasonal vegetables treated with real respect. The wine selection punches above its weight for a neighbourhood spot, and staff actually seem to know what they're talking about rather than just pointing at a laminated list.
