This is the second restaurant under the same name, its predecessor in the late 1980s and into the 1990s having been in a terrace house of a style typical of the Sydney inner-western suburb of Rozelle.

  • Tilley's

    Tilley's Devine café Gallery is a well-known café in the suburb of Lyneham in Canberra, Australia. It was named after Matilda 'Tilly' Devine, a gangster and madame from Sydney who lived in the mid-twentieth century.

    When the café first opened in 1984, it was intended as a women's space, with men allowed entry only when accompanied by women. Popular with lesbian women, it quickly became an icon of Canberra's LGBT scene. Attempts to restrict or limit entry of men inevitably brought challenges, most notably by a group of cadets from the Royal Military College, Duntroon who attempted to force their way in, instigating a brawl. Eventually the policy was dropped.

    Tilley's originally had seating for 60, but subsequently expanded five times, and now has large indoor and outdoor eating areas. It was once a popular space for night time concerts by local musicians, hosting names such as Mia Dyson and Clare Bowditch. In 2005 concerts were scaled back in order to expand the more financially viable restaurant and café. According to the Tilley's site, it was the first licensed outdoor venue in Australia, and the first Australian bar to ban smoking indoors.

Australian cuisine :



 

Australian cuisine have been shaped by the people who settled in Australia. Throughout the majority of Australian history, for as long as 40,000 years before European settlement, food traditions were based on the native bushfoods of indigenous Australians . Anglo-Celtic British and Irish food was brought to the country upon the arrival of the earliest settlers from the British Isles in the late 18th century, forming the foundation of the cooking of modern Australian for the next century or so. Later, in the 19th and especially 20th century, food began to reflect the influences of Mediterranean and Asian cultures, introduced by many immigrants who arrived in Australia during this period.

Nowadays, food consumed by Australians bears the influences of globalisation. Organic and biodynamic, Kosher and Halal food, for example, is widely available in Australia. Restaurants whose cuisine tends to demonstrate contemporary adaptations, interpretations or fusions of these multicultural culinary influences are frequently labelled with the umbrella term "Modern Australian". Fast food chains can also be found all over the country. British traditions still persist to varying degrees both in domestic cooking as well as the takeaway food sector, with pies and fish and chips remaining popular among Australians.

A renewed native Australian cuisine movement has also emerged, evolving out of the Australian themed restaurants of the mid-1980s. The discovery of the spice-like qualities of many native Australian plant ingredients, long known to indigenous Australians but largely ignored by the early European settlers, formed the basis of a gourmet cuisine. This is in contrast with the Bush tucker or foraged food as in native Aboriginal traditions unfamiliar to gourmets.
