Some Spag Bol

Over two months ago now, I met Sister and her daughter Jo for a meal before they went to see a musical show, I think Beauty and the Beast. I asked Sister, where is this Spaghetti Tree? Brother, you've been past it a million times. Just be there. Bloody bossy school teacher.

And she was right, I had been past it many times, and Spaghetti Tree was fantastic. Food was great, staff great, the décor so interesting and the entertainment, amazing.



We began with French sounding music played on a piano accordion. 



Then to Italian music with violin. It seems I didn't take a photo when he switched to Russian music on another instrument. 


There were lots of photos of film stars spread across the walls. 



 I highly recommend the Spaghetti Tree, even though I am take it leave person about pasta.

  4. Like you I am a take it or leave it guy when it comes to pasta - especially as my own spaghetti bolognese is legendary in these parts. However, the interior of that place looks great.

  5. Bourke Street? I am sure I have been there. I tend not to eat pasta when I go out as I wear more than I eat.

    1. Merlot, it has been there for a long time so you may well have visited. I get you about pasta being messy.

  6. Another interesting place to eat. You seem to have several good restaurants around you. I'm going to need some breathing space. Hate wins and we all lose.

  8. Can you speak over the top of the crowds, and the music, to the other people on your own table?

    1. Hels, I don't think it was noisy. I would probably remember if I was.

    1. Margaret, the problem with posting about something that happened two months ago, is I can't remember what I ate.

  11. Looks nice, a fun place to eat out. Pasta done well is great and I do love an Italian wine.

    1. Alison, I don't think I've ever had Italian wine. Portuguese and Spanish wine is nice and somewhat different to our own wine. Thanks.

  12. That looks like quite a place, Andrew.

    1. Pat, it was certainly a place where you needed to book. Up on the mezzanine was good.

  13. I feel the same about pasta. We have a Spaghetti Warehouse NOT to be confused with Spaghetti Factory in the States, horrible!!
