Giuseppe, Arnaldo & Sons

Those Sydneysiders, or in this case lads returning from North of the border, are just queuing up to land a spot on the Crown food juggernaut. Giuseppe, Arnaldo & Sons is the latest offspring from revered dynamic duo Merice Terzini and Robert Marchetti.

The bar area is funky fresh, the tiles looked like they could have been taken from an indie electo pop kid’s t-shirt. Green, red and white glossy papers with random scribbles a play on the colours and theme used at Sydney’s North Bondi Italian. A very chilled and laid back area for a drink or late afternoon coffee, an extensive wine and booze list to choose from. The Baccala Fritto, were certainly crumbed crispy, SALTY cod balls, the lemon and aioli do little to dull the highly flavoured fish. That will do little to dissuade me from returning for a probably square meal here.
