June 9, 2024
A couple of months after our first meal at Joanne's, it again became a cosy and convenient spot for dinner, this time after a movie at Nova. We chose new dishes with the same approach as last time, splitting an appetiser and a pizza between the two of us.
I'm fond of a basic cheap garlic bread of the likes you'd find at Domino's. Sometimes more gourmet Sversions switch up the ingredients well, but often I'm honestly disappointed. Joanne's home-made garlic bread with cheese ($9, pictured below) was one of the good 'uns: both crusty and soft, plenty buttery and generously but not excessively cheesed.
The vegetarian Joanne's special ($23) had generous and well-balanced toppings: thin slices of mock ham and salami, mushrooms, green capsicum, olives and garlic, with just enough mozzarella to bind it all together. Is 2024 the year I finally make my peace with olives? I'll have to update our bio.

Accessibility: There are four steps up on entry. Furniture inside is quite densely packed with a reasonably wide path through the middle. We ordered at our table and paid at a high counter. We didn't visit the toilets.
