Criniti's


Restaurant Aesthetics

This week I headed over to Criniti's Darling Harbour located on the harbour walk facing the water, Critini's offers a high end dining environment which personifies a friendly and exciting environment. Critini's has become well known for its specialised and rather over the top, 2 metre pizzas. Critini's offers a large dining area with the options of eating insider or outside which has a opened view of Darling Harbour. The two main aestheti
cs that differentiate this restaurant from ones I have visited in the past is the open kitchen for pizzas, customers are able to observe their pizza being made thus insuring the staff stick to a high quality production. Secondly the design of the bar, the bar encompasses a large motorbike above the alcohol, although it has no specific function it definitely adds a nice visual effect.

Food and service

One thing you will always be certain about if you eat at Critini's is that you will always find something that you like, the menu encompasses red and white meats, as well as pastas, burgers and an excessively long list of pizzas, ranging from the classic margarita to pork belly crackle with oregano. The prices generally range around $30 for most of the food with the exceptions of the 2 metre pizzas which costed on average $120. The service of Critini's is fast and very friendly, upon arrival we were quickly escorted to our seat and a waiter came to great us shortly after wanting to take our drink preferences. With constant check ups throughout the night as to the quality of the food and refreshments, the dining experience was very pleasant.


My partner and I decided to go with the Critini's burger, a margarita pizza and a side dish of wedges, for drinks I received a pint of Critini's take on an Australian Pale Ale, my partner~ a Miscato. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked and seasoned. No complaints could possible be derived from the night. Overall the night costed $120, significantly more expensive than last weeks review but well worth it. The quality of the food was not an issue, we left the restaurant bursting at the seams and took what was left pizza and called it a night.



Final thoughts

 Critini's has definitely set the bar very high for the next coming weeks, the food was incredible and the service matched this. Overall the restaurant has proved to be one of the best I have been to, I would strongly recommend this to anyone who wants a night calm night out with friends or a significant other. This restaurant has clearly received a 5/5 in my books.

Latitude 30

  Latitude 30 The venue/location: I stopped by Latitude 30 on my return journey from visiting Brisbane. This quaint little restaurant has a wonderful ocean-side view which fit's the primarily seafood menu quite well. Located in Coffs Harbour, the weather is suitable for outside seating most of the year. After eating you can take a rather nice walk up the cliff-side overlooking the ocean, which is absolutely gorgeous around sunset. Also there's an Ice Cream store nearby, so if you've still got some room left, it can be nice to have dessert whilst on an ocean-side walk.  The food and drinks: Overall I found it to be a little on the pricey side - however considering the view, I was okay with this fact. I ordered their crispy black pepper squid, as well as their Salmon Gravlax, each were roughly $18-22. I ordered a glass of White Wine also, a 2016 Riesling by Jim Barry Vineyards which paired rather nicely with the two dishes. Both of the dishes were presented quite...

TC brothers- Pizza, Kebabs & HSP

On the 10th of April I visited TC brothers on Canterbury Road, the business is well known with its area for top of the line pizzas, kebabs and HSPs. As far as unbalanced diets go for university students mine ranks amongst the best, so immediately this sparked my interest. The businesses location is very easy to locate as it faces a very high traffic road which leads in and out of Bansktown whilst also connecting many other small suburbs. Upon entering the restaurant we were immediately greeted with  a friend face and a conversation sparked. The colloquialism of the staff was funny and it was clear that a sense of humor and commitment to customer satisfaction was important. The extensive menu covered all forms of meat, in styles such as pizzas, kebabs, HSPS and even offered alternative dietary options such as vegetarian. The prices ranged from as low as $8 for a basic HSP to $22 for a full sized family pizza (to which I naturally purchased...
