Fratelli Fresh Miranda Launch

Overview

Fratelli Fresh is adding an eighth notch to its belt and opening its first Italian eatery in the Sutherland Shire. The sprawling Westfield Miranda space offers, well, everything — there's Neapolitan pizza, tiramisu, ten different pastas, all-you-can-eat mussel Thursdays and a $2 oyster happy hour (from 5–6pm daily).

There's room for 200 diners and drinkers, including 60 on an al fresco terrace — and a Scoop & Shake gelato and coffee bar on the rooftop. You'll want to be heading here on the restaurant's opening weekend, December 13–15, because it'll be serving up $2 scoops of gelato and $2 coffees all day for three days. On Sunday, the gelato will be completely free all day, too. The house-made gelato comes in flavours like hazelnut and salted caramel, chocolate crunch, and yoghurt and amarena.

If you miss out on the opening weekend, head in during the weekday happy hour, which runs from 3–6pm Monday–Friday. During this time you'll find $3 olives, $4 garlic bread, $5 zucchini flowers and glasses of wine and — wait for it — $6 espresso martinis, negronis, Aperol spritzes and margherita pizzas. Yep, that's a mighty fine happy hour.

Fratelli Fresh Westfield Miranda is open from 11.30am–9.30pm daily.
