D.O.C’s Carlton flagship first opened in 2007 on Drummond Street.
Some of Melbourne’s best pizza can be found in this heritage Victorian corner shopfront housing DOC’s flagship venue, open since 2007. It’s nice to begin with its other speciality – silken-centred buffalo mozzarella – maybe teamed with shaved San Daniele prosciutto and sliced focaccia laden with extra virgin olive oil.
Then it’s on to the main game – thin, perfectly chewy-crunchy pizzas, perhaps topped with white truffle-oil-drizzled porcini and field mushrooms and pecorino cheese; roasted peppers and hot salami; or heady gorgonzola and smoked scamorza with pear, walnuts and smoked speck prosciutto. Wash it down with an Italian micro-brewed beer or cocktail.
Say “ciao” with desserts like Belgian white chocolate pizza with icecream; mini Sicilian cannoli stuffed with sweet ricotta; or DOC’s signature tiramisu. To round out a classic Melbourne date night, dine before or after catching a film across the road at Cinema Nova.
