THE VERDICT

Think pizza couldn't get any better? Think again.

This Roman-style 'pinsa' joint, which spruiks a crumblier crust that's more of a mouthful has opened in Richmond, complete with cheese sommeliers, a burrata bar, antipasti pros and 10,000 bottles of liquor on display.

Flour Child, which you might know from its outpost in St Kilda, has opened a second iteration on and makes its home in a former dance studio above Church Street.

The refurb on the space has given it a retractable rooftop, banquette seating (think extra glam with plenty of marble and brass) and a grand central bar that runs the length of the restaurant.

FYI, Roman-style pinsa is a little bit more like focaccia, opposed to the crispy wood-fired Napoletana-style we’re accustomed to in Melbourne.
