National Tiramisu Day Specials at Bar Infinita
The Italian darling of Sydney's North Shore is offering tiramisu-centric specials to celebrate its birthday.
Overview
It was a year ago now that Sydney's North Shore was blessed with a new opening, and a long-awaited one, too. Bar Infinita has taken over the local Italian dining scene from its Gordon home, and it's already celebrating its first birthday. In a fantastic convenience, that birthday just so happens to fall on National Tiramisu Day, so we lucky diners are getting some deliciously themed specials to celebrate.
Typically, the birthday celebrant isn't the one giving the gifts, but who are we to complain in the face of tasty treats? Cocktail aficionados should swing a booking on Thursday, March 20 and get into $5 Tiramisu Martinis. Come Friday, March 21, Bar Infinita's famous Nonnas Tiramisu takes centrestage, and is free for all bookings between 5pm and 6pm. That's right, free tiramisu — that's not your Nonna's happy hour special.
Take Studios
If you miss the initial offering, the birthday celebrations are continuing through the weekend with a limited-edition Pistachio Tiramisu on Saturday, 15% takeout discounts on Sunday, and a set menu wine dinner on Monday, March 24. Those are the specials, but Bar Infinita has a hell of a lot more than just tiramisu going for it. In fact, it hasn't lost a puff of steam since its opening.
Chef Francesco Iervolino (who has previously worked at Surry Hills' Firedoor and Mosman's Ormeggio) helms the menu, which is packed with high-end Italian classics and fuelled by a wood-fire oven. But there's not a slice of pizza in sight here, with that oven instead going to work cooking up some seriously top-notch steaks. And carb fiends fret not; the lack of pizza is made up for with bowls upon bowls of pasta and inventive antipasti.
