SUD Food and Wine

"That was the best meatball I have ever had" was the resounding sound across the table on trying SUD's pork and duck meatballs - but the praise for SUD Food and Wine doesn't stop there.  Situated on King Street in Melbourne CBD, SUD is a little slice of Italy.  Whilst some would call the venue outdated, I'd prefer to say it has charm - oozing with the elegance of old school Italy.

The starters are served up from a share plate by the waiter - which certainly gives the experience a warming sense of popping over to a friend's house for dinner - however, doesn't necessarily give the greatest photos.  The duck and pork meatballs are non-negotiable for a starter if they make their way on the specials board again, and the Caprese salad is also an excellent option.

For main, it's hard to go past one of SUDs exceptional pasta dishes - with myself opting for the pasta with spicy pork, spicy n'duja, tomato and red wine ragu.

With it's exceptional food, and even more exceptional service, there's no wonder this little slice of Italy has earned itself the title of "The New Fave".
