Top Paddock matches top produce with a switched-on kitchen team and a menu that’s more daytime eatery than cafe. Its designer stylings suit the rebooted Yarra end of Richmond and pull a steady crowd that swells to a thronging mass on weekends. Luscious Darling Downs wagyu (Master Kobe 9-plus) in a steak sandwich needs little more than crisp batons of baby leek tempura and a light whipped horseradish cream, while cured ocean trout is seared outside and sweetly fishy in, served with baby beets and creamy potato galette. Daily specials include simpler sandwiches: say roast vegies with pesto and feta. Coffee is top shelf.
