Back in my high school days Liverpool St Chinatown was known for one thing, Mamma’s Kitchen. To many of us was the home of the $6 spaghetti, which was the kind of food where you try not to think about what corners were cut to make the price. This mindset did wonders during my uni days (Dixon House being the main culprit).
Fast forward to the present and here I was again, at The Dip (in the GoodGod Bar) right next to where Mamma’s Kitchen used to be.
From my 3 visits there I have come to the following conclusions.
- The pulled pork nachos is awesome (most of the time). The level of awesome depends on how smoky the pulled pork is.
- The cocktails are nice, not fancy but nice. Don’t expect any triple-frozen ice balls or fancy glassware (they are served in a jug). The taste might be a bit sweet for some but made for easy drinking with the food. If I only wanted drinks I’d probably go elsewhere. I should also note that one of them has cherry cola which is a big thumbs up in my book.
- You should follow them on Twitter (@dothedip). This was how I found out about the hot dog happy hour (half price) and the Goodgod Good Dog (pic below), which was pulled pork on a hotdog (this may have bought tears to my eyes).
So there you have it, a fun little place. Approved.
Nachos. Go for the pulled pork. It may change your life.
Good God Good Dog. Pulled pork on a hot dog, if the nachos didn't change your life this might.
Only dessert I ever tried. Cookies n cream, the salted caramel ice crew was nice but not life-changingly brilliant.
