The contrast between the crunchy outer shell and the creamy center is a culinary masterpiece, creating a harmonious balance of textures that tantalise the taste buds. This was the perfect way to start any meal.

Oysters Kilpatrick offered a delectable journey for the taste buds, showcasing the freshness of South Australian oysters complemented by the smoky essence of wood-fired grilling. Topped with crispy bacon and a generous drizzle of Worcestershire sauce, each bite was a harmonious blend of savoury and tangy flavours. The oysters, plump and succulent, provided the perfect canvas for the rich umami notes of the sauce and the smoky aroma of the bacon. The grilling process added a delightful charred touch, enhancing the overall sensory experience. Each bite was a testament to the mastery of flavour and technique, making Oysters Kilpatrick an unforgettable indulgence for any seafood enthusiast.

The Prosciutto Crust Co pizza was a culinary masterpiece that left a lasting impression with its exquisite combination of flavours and textures. The wood-fired oven imparted a delightful smokiness to the crispy yet chewy crust, providing the perfect base for the decadent toppings. Generous slices of prosciutto di Parma added a salty richness that harmonised beautifully with the creamy burrata and sharp parmesan cheese. The tangy sweetness of the tomato sauce provided a vibrant contrast, while the peppery rocket added a refreshing bite. Each bite was a symphony of Italian flavours, showcasing the skill and expertise of the pizza chefs. It was a pizza experience that transcended the ordinary, leaving me craving more long after the last slice was devoured.

The Italian Calzone was nothing short of a culinary revelation. Cooked to perfection in a wood-fired oven, it arrives at the table with a tantalising aroma that promises an extraordinary dining experience. The crispy yet tender crust serves as a delightful vessel for the sumptuous filling of gooey mozzarella cheese, savoury salami, succulent double smoked ham, earthy mushrooms, sweet onions, and rich parmigiana. But what truly sets this Calzone apart is the finishing touch: a generous pour of slow-cooked bolognese sauce that adds depth and richness to every bite. Each forkful is a symphony of flavours and textures, a testament to the craftsmanship and passion of the culinary artisans behind this masterpiece. Whether you’re a devout pizza enthusiast or a casual diner seeking an unforgettable meal, the Italian Calzone at this establishment is an absolute must-try.

The Affluent Sea pizza was a culinary delight that transported the taste buds to new heights of satisfaction. Cooked to perfection in a wood-fired oven, it boasted a perfectly charred yet chewy crust that served as the ideal canvas for its luxurious toppings. The combination of tangy tomato sauce, creamy mozzarella cheese, and aromatic garlic provided a flavourful base that set the stage for the star ingredients. Plump, juicy prawns and briny anchovies added a delightful oceanic richness, while bursts of sweetness from the cherry tomatoes balanced the dish beautifully. A sprinkle of fiery chili flakes elevated each bite, adding a tantalising heat that lingered on the palate.

The Fettuccine Carbonara was a decadent delight that captivated the senses with its rich and creamy indulgence. Each forkful revealed perfectly cooked fettuccine coated in a luxuriously velvety cream-based sauce, infused with the salty richness of crisp bacon and the sharp bite of parmesan cheese. The crowning glory was the egg, its golden yolk cascading into the pasta to create a luscious sauce that enveloped every strand. A generous sprinkling of cracked pepper added a subtle heat that danced on the palate, elevating the dish to new heights of flavour.

The 250g Scotch Fillet steak was a carnivore’s dream, offering a succulent and perfectly cooked piece of meat that melted in the mouth with each bite. Cooked to a flawless medium-rare, the steak boasted a tender texture and a rich, beefy flavour that was complemented beautifully by the accompanying mushroom gravy. Alongside the star of the dish, a vibrant medley of broccoli, cauliflower, capsicum, and carrot provided a fresh and colourful contrast, while the hot potato chips added a satisfying crunch. Each element on the plate harmonised seamlessly, creating a symphony of flavours and textures that left a lasting impression. This steak experience was a true testament to the skill and dedication of the chefs behind it, promising a memorable dining experience for any meat enthusiast.
