It’s run by Tomoya Kawaski (behind Wabi Sabi Salon) and is fitted out with kitschy vintage furniture belonging to Kawasaki’s grandmother.

And he wanted to bring some of that inner-city polish to the beachside suburb he calls home. So he decided to open two adjoining spots: fine diner Baix, and wine bar 81 Bay. Each has its own distinct character.

And at Fitzroy North restaurant Good Times, affordable bowls of pasta and carafes of wine have been $9 since it opened in 2019. Its owners have brought a similar menu and wallet-friendly ethos to the spot’s Brunswick East follow-up, Times New Roman.
