About Gilda & Fern
Twenty-eight seats down a laneway off Flinders Lane, most of them two-tops against the brick. The pasta is rolled in the window every morning and the wine list runs long on Italian producers nobody has heard of. It is dark, it is quiet enough to talk, and it takes bookings four weeks out for a reason.
