disconcerting practice that sparked
an unconscious table-wide wine-
guzzling competition.

Even without the nightly visit
from the irrepressible Sortino from
heated kitchen depths, Carmelo
has retained the peculiar warmth
of spirit that turns a select few res-
taurants from mere culinary
refuelling stops to places of spon-
taneous sociability.

An enduring and good quality
restaurant at which to vanquish
nagging Jtalian food cravings,
Carmélo is open for lunch and
dinner Monday to Friday and for
dinner every day.

well above the average.

beer batter and crumbed with co-
conut ($5.95). The restaurant’s
