Love Life Live It

The Mantus are worth driving here to get it. The group of us shared the mantu, Iskander plate, pide and lamoujun as part of our monthly get together where we would go for a meal somewhere, then go for ice cream next door to Crema Ice Cream (on Willingdon, near Hastings) (I was too excited for their January Ube, and hojicha scoops and forgot to take a photo!) I highly recommend trying out both places at the same time if you haven't already!

is a must, more than once! Everything we tried was . We left it in the chef's good hands with the $75pp menu and shared everything. The suppli (arancini) tasted like cacio e pepe (as advertised) and was fried to peefection. The whipped goat cheese bruschetta with honey had a nice chili kick to it. Who knew chickpea fritters could taste so good! Definitely get this; we were all pleasantly surprised at the amount of flavour. All the veggies we delightful. Pasta was cooked to perfection and well seasoned. I found the cappellacci a bit sweet and rich for my taste, but the others really liked it. Overall, a wonderful gastronomic experience coupled with wonderful service from the Giusti team. Thank you for a fabulous night out!

We had a wonderful meal tonight! Great food and great service (Lara was our server)! My favorite of the night was definitely the octopus; cooked tender, well seasoned with a slight kick, on a bed of mash. Could have had that all to myself! Thank you for a wonderful experience ☺️

It's been on my list for a while. Finally made it to .

All my pork belly should come to me like this moving forward. 🤗 I ate all but a couple bites of the rice. My tummy is happy! Had the best seat in the house as well, in front of where they plated / finished each dish. Wanted to eat everything they were putting together in front of me. Will have to come back with a few more people next time so I can try a few more things. Thank you for a wonderful experience 💓

The octopus was sooo tender and perfectly seasoned. Broccolini was also amazing. It came with some tortillas on the side. The ceviche with coconut cream had a nice mix herbs and spice. Would eat these two times again in a heartbeat! Wish I took a picture of their Oaxaca cocktail as I enjoyed every sip of this concoction. Can't wait to go back to (Chupito)!

Our last meal in Vietnam. We decided to splurge and go to Tanh Tach ( ). Everything was cooked well. The most flavourful was the amuse bouche and first appetizer (combined on one plate in first photo).
