House made gnocchi with roasted tomato asparagus & broad beans

The house made gnocchi with roasted tomato asparagus and broad beans was a superb dish that was highlighted by the light gnocchi which captivated with its “melt in your mouth" interior and crisp exterior. We loved the freshness of the accompanying tomatoes, asparagus and broad beans. 
Spiced pork sausages, Asian coleslaw & sirachi mayo

Seared Silver Trevally, radish, cucumber & caperberry salad

The Seared Silver Trevally, radish, cucumber and caper berry salad was again, excellent. The Trevally was well cooked and went well with the radish, cucumber and caperberry. The radish and cucumber were spot on in terms of texture, both working in sync with the salinity and tartness of the caperberries. While the adorning slithers of seaweed added a nice touch to the finished product.
CH James is the perfect embodiment of a thriving café. A festive hub that is unique to Fairfield and Melbourne it is a weekend brunch mecca, drawing in the crowds week in week out with excellent food, fantastic coffee and cheerful wait staff.
