With the neighbouring chicken shop’s Friday night queue winding down the street, the Doughboy crew might’ve picked a tough spot. I suspect though the lure of their Carbonara ($15.00/M, $20.50/L, $24.50/XL) will pull a few off the chook parade – Sydneysiders are adverse to queuing. And who knew that a thyme and garlic crème sauce could work so well on a pizza decked with peas, double smoked ham off the bone, mushrooms, Parmesan and parsley? Trust me – it’s good. This space is also their group food production site; behind a clear wall you can see Turkish red peppers, Spanish caper berries, Italian artichokes and fresh pineapples. This bodes well for their version of the perennial ham and pineapple fav. – Gilligan’s Island ($15/M, $20.5/L, $24.5/XL). A dab less tomato sauce and it’d be perfect. Super-thin bases make for a lighter pizza experience – all the more room for excellent pizza-style Bruschetta ($7.50) with fresh tomato, shredded bocconcini, pesto and fresh basil. Standout tunes and a modern fit-out make dining in an option – sit at the communal table, or check out the street-scape. Don’t skip the greens – a Shabbit ($8.50) of mixed leaves, tomato, bocconcini and pesto proves to be a better salad than you’d expect from a pizza shop.
