About Little Tim Tam

Moody lighting, green foliage, and punchy Asian fusion set the pace at this Prahran enclave. Regulars slip in off Chapel Street for an unhurried corner booth and hefty plates meant to be passed around the table. The kitchen leans playful with crisp macaroni and cheese spring rolls before diving into classic territory—think kingfish sashimi, loaded tofu pad Thai, and citrusy tom yum fried rice. Portions run generous enough to feed a crowd, anchored by balanced margaritas and pocket-friendly mocktails.

  • Moody Chapel Street Ambience: Lush greenery and soft accent lighting create an intimate setting suited for celebrations or lingering dinners.
  • Playful Fusion Bites: Eclectic starters include crisp macaroni and cheese spring rolls alongside fresh kingfish sashimi.
  • Generous Sharing Portions: Loaded noodle stir-fries and rice mains arrive in generous servings built to share.
