Due to my relatives are Italian, therefore, we went to Australian Italian club in Hobart to explore the foods.
We ordered the garlic bread pizza, which is not too bad, it is tasty. Nice dough base.
Next, we waited for mains, "Pancetta di Maiale" (Rosemary infused pork belly with a port wine ) and " Pollo al Marsala"( Chicken breast medallions panned with mushrooms , Marsala and cream) both severed served with Italian style potatoes and vage.

It's great to see this club seeing a revival, with both old and new members...
