I CARUSSI II


The next stop on our foodie trail is just down the street in our St Kilda neighborhood. We've been eyeing the white tablecloths and Parisian chairs in this bustling establishment for a few months now and finally we go for a test. Lately We've been unwilling to go out and pay for pizza since Richard has been experimenting with his own pizza dough in the kitchen. But his attempts have been lackluster as of late and we were lazy after a weekend away camping (always tiring). Despite the crowd we quickly got a table outside on busy Barkly St. Not ideal but good enough. Casual setting. Limited but gourmet Italian wine list. We proceeded to gorge ourselves on the amazingly delicious artisan pizza. I went for a new flavor the Genovese while Ricardo went for a Quattro Formagio with added sorpressa. Each about 12 inches. They were gone by the time we left, which wasn't very long. We won't order our pizzas from anywhere else again and Richard got some new ideas for the homemade versions. A success just meters from our front door. A simplistic gourmet experience. Next time we know to make a reservation and will be ready to try out another new flavor until I am sure of my favorite. Though don't arrive hungry because the pizza making process can be slow, but I say its worth it.
