The Best Pizza I've Ever Had!



The Best Pizza I've Ever Had says Kevin (my hubbie) of our first taste of pizza from Via Napoli Pizzeria in Lane Cove. Big statement but those were the exact words from a man who is a pretty discerning food critic. If he doesn't like something, he will gladly tell you (even if it was a gift of home baked biscotti from your best friend!)


Via Napoli is a busy, busy restaurant so you will need to book. Unfortunately, this rushed busyness was felt all around from the time we made the booking when we were told we had limited time at our table to the wait staff and chefs who are literally running. We felt anything but relaxed. 

Another downfall for us was that we had to sit on the main street with yahoo's passing in their cars and a group of smokers who congregated on the corner.

Apart from that, we really enjoyed our food and next time will ask for a more secluded table.


The Olives were amazing!

Firefly Wine & Tapas - Lane Cove



Conveniently located in the Lane Cove mall, Firefly is great for breakfast, lunch, dinner, a glass of wine or a even a relaxing coffee. This evening, we find ourselves on date night enjoying the warm ambiance of this local wine and tapas bar.


A taste of Kevin's Pan Roasted Barramundi, revealed voluptuous Thai flavours that melted in my mouth. Especially next to my rather plain roasted beet salad which begged for pomegranate syrup or other. 


Although my salad was a little disappointing, I would definitely return.

You can vote for this restaurant or review it on Urbanspoon.
