Son of a Pizzaiolo

Since the opening of SOP, brothers Frank and Roque Romano have truly established themselves as maestros of the Thornbury pizza scene. If you are looking for quality pizzas of the gourmet kind, this pizzeria should be at the top of your list.

Recently SOP have launched a newly designed 'Prima Colazione' menu that's not just pizza!

We loved the great variety on their brunch menu. From the heart-warming tiramisu porridges to mammoth sized pulled pork brioche burgers to indulgent Nutella French toasts. 

For health-fiends the Ancient grain super salad is wonderful and made with organic quinoa, avocado, goji berries, asparagus, kale, fennel, yellow cauliflower, toasted pumpkin seeds, nigella seeds, beetroot dressing and a perfectly poached dukkah spiced egg. It was a wonderful amalgamation of flavours and textures.

If you're looking to spoil yourself, do not go past the Mixed Berry Hotcakes. SOP's loyal band of followers often wax lyrically of these fluffy, perfectly cooked sweet treats and it is easy to understand why. Their Berry Hot Cakes were wonderful. The airy hotcakes were adorned with luxurious mascarpone, mixed berry coulis, fresh berries and crunchy pistachios. Delicious!

The hotcakes are perfect with SOP's locally roasted coffee which comes with the most intricate latte art around.
