Restaurant review: Doppio Zero Southdowns
Doppio Zero at the
Southdowns mall in Centurion recreates the atmosphere of a European Coffee
Shop. (No, not Amsterdam Coffee Shop).
When you step through the doors at Doppio, you are greeted with
the scent of freshly baked bread and cookies. Doppio Zero has their own bakery,
which delivers freshly baked Artisan goods every day.
Ideal for a first date, I invited a girl that I have only
spoken to on the Internet to join me for a drink at Doppio. The friendly and warm
atmosphere at Doppio is perfect to put two nervous people at ease. Also, eye
witnesses should I go missing.

The ambience did its job and soon, with wine in hand, we
were chatting like we have known it each other for years. We quickly decided
that we will upgrade this date from ‘Drinks’ to ‘Dinner and Drinks’. Doppio’s
menu offers Mediterranean dishes with a South African twist. They have a lot mouth-watering
dishes including one of my favourites – Gnocchi. Much like a pasta dish, Gnocchi
is made from potato dumplings and served with a pasta sauce you desire.
The breakfast menu at Doppio Zero is something special with
many unique dishes that you don’t normally find on a breakfast menu making
Doppio a lovely place to go for breakfast.
Hey, speaking of menus, Doppio Zero why do you put you menus
on your website as pdf
files? Not only do I have to wait for the menu to download, the menus are
not searchable. If you want to make one change to the menu you have to redo the
pdf and upload the file again. If you had the menu in HTML you could make the
change quickly without a lot of hassle. Do yourself and us a favour by
uploading your menus in good ’ol HTML.
According to your website, you don't have pizza.
That said, Doppio is an enjoyable upmarket and relaxed place
for breakfast, lunch or dinner. How did my dinner date go?
As of now, my date is now my fiancé.
