Bazaari - Marrickville

I recently hired Kate to do my makeup for a charity ball I was attending I wanted sophistication and class, without looking over the top.

I went in a group of 6 last evening. We shared plates and it's definitely the way to go! We started with Labne, nigella bread, pomegranate, pink pickle & basil oil, and then moved on to sheftalia with lemon and pita and chicken wings as starters. For our mains we had pork neck with fennel and yoghurt, Tiropitakia, Sheftalia, sticky pork jowl, lamb neck and beef sirloin. Al the sides looked SO good we ordered the lot! We had beautiful roast pumpkin with honey, crispy potatoes and my favourite 2 sides of the night were the brussel sprouts and the freekeh salad. My tastebuds were having a party! A lovely way to share exciting food with friends.

I went to this restaurant with a group of eight friends. We had the set menu, it was delicious. There was more than enough food and some of us took home doggy bags. They had a good wine list. Service was great. The set menu was $60pp, I personally thought it was great value for money. The Lamb roast was a knock out!

Went with friends and had a great night. We ordered way too much but enjoyed trying a few different dishes. Between the six of us we ordered half a dozen each of the smalls and bigs. Our favourites by far were the pastourma, sheftalia smalls and the duck main. Absolutely delicious. The beef and pork were nice but not as flavoursome. The octopus dish was poor which was disappointing. The soujouko with sand pit coffee was to die for. Absolute must! Place was new and renovated well. Service and atmosphere were bang on. We paid $175 per couple with a few wines which we felt was fair.

Amazing taste and selection however 90 mins timing on table is very rushed and you will be just given the bill when times up!
