Where to Eat in Five Dock
Five Dock wears its Italian food history proudly but it has also led me to Japanese izakaya dishes and fragrant Afghan feasts. A food tour is a fine way to begin, although gelato from Cremeria De Luca is a very convincing alternative.
It wasn't the most stellar start to a night. I had booked us into Bamiyan using an online service for 8pm knowing that we had a busy day of errands and lots of traffic to contend with from a nearby music festival. They then telephones and we were told that they were quite booked and would we mind coming in at 6:30pm instead. It wasn't ideal but after a flurry of emails and phone calls, our time was readjusted. However the music festival would impede us at every turn with barricades and police stopping us from getting to our home to dump our thawing groceries. I looked at the clock anxiously, technically we were still on time but Sydney's traffic is unpredictable and it ended up taking us twice as long to reach Five Dock as it should have.
