Why was I surprised places were closed on Anzac Day? Perhaps because we were in the largest city in Australia where neither Easter nor Christmas is held as sacred as in times gone by. So I was somewhat amazed that many top restaurants took the public holiday to heart and were closed. We were going to go to Billy Kwong, but closed it was. Four in Hand was booked out. With such a saturation of good restaraunts within cooee of our apartment there must be somewhere we could go to on foot. Buzo's was the one. Dark little terrace house just off Oxford Street. Tiny front room downstairs, slightly bigger dining room up the narrow windy stairs. We had a terrific meal - I was a bit doubtful about Italian - the menu always seems to fall to so-called traditional choices. We had traditional ingredients elegantly interpreted into an Italian inspired menu. By the time we had finished our 3 courses the restaurant was in full swing and buzzy. Good choice.
