Full house on a weekday afternoon; Magpie is drawing quite the buzzing lunch crowd with their playful, fresh menu in my opinion.

Starting strong with their snacks, their golden-brown Prawn Tostada, Tomato Fresca ($23) was a moreish combo made with generous plump prawns, ginger flower, prawn head mayo, and a house-fermented tomato salsa. A fun, Mexican-esque dish which resembles a perfectly fried spiced, tangy and umami prawn cake; best with a good squeeze of lime.
