One of my favourite little Italian restaurants in the city is Sarti. With an amazing rooftop terrace that overlooks the CBD and warm, contemporary interiors, this places dishes up some pretty amazing modern Italian cuisine. One of my favourite things about this restaurant is their ‘stuzzichini’ (small Italian appetizers) menu.
“Sarti is a modern Italian eatery where you can enjoy the time-honoured traditions of Italian cuisine without the clichés. With a contemporary focus on food and style, Sarti is the ideal showcase for chef, Riccardo Momesso’s creativity, passion and commitment to quality. Enjoy his innovative interpretations of classics as well as unique, signature dishes.”
