Those looking for chic kerbside dining in the heart of Surfers Paradise, drop into Baritalia perched on the corner of Elkhorn Avenue and Surfers Paradise Boulevard. Grab a seat alfresco and people watch while basking in the sunshine and sipping on a latte at one of the Gold Coast’s local landmarks, or dine inside where hanging baskets and rustic furniture create a warm, relaxing vibe. Choose from a menu inspired by the best of European cuisine with staples such as antipasti, pasta, pizza and dessert, all with modern influences and featuring the best seasonal produce. Perhaps start with calamari fritti with house tartar or traditional bruschetta, before delving into veal scaloppine with white wine, mushroom, onions and garlic in a light creamy sauce and served with broccoli and beans.
