ROSETTA, SYDNEY, NSW
New Restaurant of the Year? Isn’t this just a carbon copy of a fancy
trattoria Neil Perry opened in Melbourne in 2012? Not by a long shot.
There are similarities of course – the broad, pan-regional sweep of
the menu, the reassuring heft of the prices, the white-jacket service.
But between the glamour of the room and the gutsy finesse head chef
Richard Purdue and his team bring to the menu, is it just possible that
this is the rare sequel that surpasses the quality of the original?
In short:The Godfather: Part II of the restaurant world.
