Looking at the crowd today, in Sydney plenty of men and women find the time to do lunch.
When I can do it - I really enjoy it.
Friends BdR & JS and I headed to Pendolino, an Italian restaurant in the Strand Arcade, one of Sydney's oldest and most beautiful shopping centres.

It was a very dimly lit, intimate space.
We started with this variety of bread - olive, walnut and white with three different oils. The Sanguinella was my favourite
The special "lets do lunch" meal
was handmade sweet pea ravioli with gorgonzola cream and burnt butter
A delicate pasta, fresh pea filling and creamy sauce - decadent!
We shared two desserts
A nougat, Ligurian honey and almond milk semifreddo with candied almond and crostoli
And a vanilla bean and goat curd bavarese with a textured strawberry salad
BdR has been known to take her holidays in October - just to go to as many Crave Sydney International Food Festival events as she can.
JS loves the pasta and ambience of Pendolino.
A great choice for lunch or dinner. I'd go back again.
that was a much better lunch than my chicken salad-wish I was there but it sounds like it
