Fratelli Fresh Crows Nest

Explored Crows Nest last weekend and discovered Borruso's, an Italian casual dining restaurant, catering to vegan and vegetarian customers too! Service is top notch here and impressively quick. Macchiati $18.90) pasta was swimming in a rich Napoletana sauce with cream and parmesan. I loved the generous portion size, which would easily feed a party of two. The Mediterranean Pizza $21.90) was also incredibly massive and looked gorgeous with pops of red, green and black. Despite its great taste, my hunt for that certain wow factor didn't bear fruitful that night. For dessert, I had the Banana Flambé $12.90) and the Berry Cheesecake $10.90).

good selection of drinks. large vegan options a star only for it. we had the bruschetta, marinara and vegan gnocchi. we waited a long time to place our main order, but then the waiting staff was excessively attentive while we eat. the bruschetta was good, the marinara was ok, but got the type of pasta wrong and the gnocchi was tasteless, there was no sage and the gnocchi was dry and tasted as if it came out of a package. not impressed, because the gnocchi alone costs $21.90 we have something disappointed and overloaded for what we have.

It's date night for Matt and I. On this particular night we head to Borrusos in Crows Nest which is a new Italian restaurant for the area. Borrusos also has an established restaurant which has been in North Bridge for some time. . I've been on a bit of a health kick in 2019 and have been counting all my calories in an effort to be more healthy and to lose some weight. I've made some progress so far but I am finding that I can still eat delicious carby meals in moderation. I am looking forward to my meal at Borrusos!

actual evaluation: 3.5 the quality of the food was really great here, although the portions on the smaller end. we really have the marinara pasta $22.90,) burnt butter gnocchi $21.90) and penne fungo $21.90) that had a very strong truffle taste in addition to the creamy mushroom. the Spanish prawn pizza with chorizo, garnel, spanish wobble and roasted huh was also good $24.90)! the bruschetta was not very impressive, and I don't think that the piece would make it look aesthetic.
