Weve live close by to Cantina Centrale so we were super excited to be invited in to try out their authentic Italian menu. Having been in Mont Albert for over 6 years we have always been amazed at how people pack in here. Even on this Tuesday night both upstairs and down were all but full which is a very good sign.
Decor was quaint and the pizza oven impressive. We sat upstairs and ordered Ros from Italy and Italian cola (Molecola) while we perused the menu
Tonight we started on super fresh and juicy marinated Sicilian green olives and aranchino al funghi with Spinach mozzarella and safron in a lovely tomato sauce. The arancini were in a delightful napoli sauces and were a very generous serve for the price.
I opted for one of the special dishes of the night a porterhouse steak, medium rare, with roast potatoes, speck and mustard. This dish totally satisfied my red meat craving but I did suffer FOMO when I saw some of the amazing pasta dishes come out to other tables that were my second choice.
KD opted for Pizza, and if she hadnt I certainly would have had to. She chose the Siciliana, a tomato based pizza with fior de latte, garlic, parmigiano, oregano, olives, capers and anchovies. The thin base had bubbled in all the right places, it was cooked well and super tasty, the anchovies added a fantastic salty hit, a really great pizza. That dough!!!
We were tossing up between the Nutella calzone and the panna cota, our lovely waitress recommended the Nutella Calzone claiming she is addicted to Nutella. Oh we are so glad we went with her recommendation. This mega oozing melting Nutella is just pure goodness, I loved the dough around it, cooked to perfection with the perfect texture, it was just simply delicious and paired with the banana ice cream to break up the richness, a cracking dessert. They have absolutely nailed it.
A very authentic pizza experience and an absolutely stunning dessert calzone. Both will ensure we bring future house guests in when we need a quick yummy dinner… we had better book.
