Melbourne Pizza

Last time I was here I didn’t have a very good pizza experience, but it turns out there is a great little cafe next to the Melbourne Marriott that offers a great wood-fired pizza.  You can’t really see it from the picture, but the crust is super thin like a Brooklyn style pizza.  The sauce was on the sweet side, but great consistency, and the dough was done in a way that lends itself to folding – an important part of eating a New York style Pizza.  The restaurant is Pomodoro .

Melbourne reminds me of San Francisco in some ways with the small cafes with seating on the sidewalks.  It was an excellent way to begin the trip.  Following are some photos of the amazing architecture you can see in Melbourne…
