20 Jul Campari House, Melbourne CBD

I came here for a colleague’s farewell, and while the others ordered pizzas, I wasn’t able to eat it so I ordered a main instead: lamb back strap, tomato pâté, olive tapenade, baby eggplant, candy peppers.

It took quite a long time to arrive – apparently it had been given to the wrong table even though they hadn’t ordered it. I saw photos of this dish online and they showed two giant pieces of eggplant, presumably both sides of a whole, however, mine was only half of a skinny eggplant. I love eggplant so I was a little disappointed by its size. Other than that it tasted OK, though it wasn’t $30 good.
