3 Dots Pizza & Cafe
Alex Stepanyants is by day a risk assessor – this newly opened Pyrmont pizzeria is his first venture into the food game. The unusual name refers to a tattoo of three dots in a triangle between his thumb and forefinger. It signifies mi vida loca or ‘my crazy life’ in Spanish. But after trying his pizza, his choice doesn’t look crazy at all! Alex believes the perfect slice can be picked up with two fingers at the crust, and it shouldn’t droop ‘ and his pizza stands up to the test! I especially enjoyed the 3 Dots Special ($9.50/sm, $14.50/md, $17.50/lg) of great quality Kalamata olives with ham, mushrooms, crunchy red onions, Italian salami and pineapple; but the Chicken Deluxe with great smoked chicken, bacon, olives, capsicum and tomato was also good. He presents many high quality ingredients for a comparatively low cost across the menu. The most expensive dish is a plate of Parmesan Crusted Lamb Cutlets ($25.50), and they were well worth it ‘ three lovely cutlets, crunchy on the outside and moist inside, on a bed of crushed potatoes and sun-dried tomatoes, finished with crisp baby spinach and lovely pecorino cheese. With mains like that, you might forget to eat the pizza!
