Tonight after a very long (and by long I mean 5am starts and
10pm finishes) week, Josh and I stopped for dinner in Kalk Bay. We looked in
the door of pretty much every restaurant along the main road, and eventually
settled on a little gem called Satori.
This little pizza/pasta restaurant is right in the heart of
the vibey Kalk Bay- right across the road from the Brass Bell.
Seeing as Josh and I don’t rate any restaurants in the deep
south very highly our expectations were rather low, but to our surprise and
delight, this time we were wrong.
We sat at a ‘street counter’ type table facing the main
road, where we got to watch the traffic and wonderful people this fabulous area
has to offer, while drinking a much deserved bottle of Sauvignon Blanc (NO, I
didn’t drink it alone! We shared! Stop judging!).
Vibey streets and a well deserved bottle |
The menu is simple- Pizza, Pasta, Salad. Easy. Or so you
would think… Each menu item sounds better than the last, simple bold flavours, classic Italian combinations and
fresh ingredients cooked together to create something truly delicious.
I had a Corlone Pasta- at least I think that's what it was called?? It was the mouth watering combination of bacon, olives and chilli in a
fresh tomato sauce with penne pasta. Out of this world… It even tasted better
than I had imagined in my head.
Unfortunately I was so hungry I forgot to take a pic |
Josh had their version of a ‘four seasons’ which was
actually a mixture of four classic pizzas. I was too full to taste it after my
pasta but he says it was very nice, he only wished it had a little more tomato
base on it. Judging from the amount of people eating their pizzas and ordering
take-away tough, I reckon they were pretty good.
Josh's left overs AKA Sara's lunch |
Even though they were fully packed the service was consistently
good and very friendly and welcoming.
Fully packed inside and out |
And the best part is, their prices are very reasonable!
I guess what I’m trying to say is GO TRY IT OUT!!! Although
if you decide to enter Kalk Bay on a Sunday, do so at your own risk!
Wishing you all a great weekend!
Hmmmm, harsh words about the restaurants in the deep south...
