I always wanted to try this place after I read about it in a magazine describing it as a restaurant that served meatballs of all kinds. And more. I decided to try out them out for lunch on my day off.

Layout is dark and quite bar/pub like. Dark wood tables and floors with black sofa seats. It felt like a great evening drinks type of place.

During weekdays, they have a lunch set menu that costs $178 with no service charge (however, $1 is added to your bill to donate to a charity). It includes a starter, main, dessert and coffee or tea. Lunch crowd is well ... the place was empty except for another group. And this was 1 PM. So, if you want a quiet place for lunch, this is it.

I decided on the quinoa salad for my starter and ultimate meatball sandwich for my main.

 Bread platter with olive paste butter. Bread was presented to me on a pretty rectangular gray plate that looked like stone. Bread was ok. Nothing exciting about it. But what made this mind blowing was the butter. I normally don't like using butter on bread but I noted that there was this black ring around the butter patty. I wasn't sure what it was until I tasted it. It was black olive paste. When I spread it out with the butter on my bread, it took it to a whole new level. It was fragrant and .. blew my mind.

 Quinoa with beetroot, baby spinach and goat cheese. I didn't expect the portions to be so huge. There was so much quinoa, it was a meal in itself. The goat cheese was creamy. Everything I love about goat cheese. The baby spinach was crisp and soft. The quinoa was light. The beetroot's tartness gave it a nice balance from the richness.

 Ultimate meatball sandwich with fries. Plated on a wooden chopping board for that rustic look. The first time I had a meatball sandwich was in this Italian deli in Little Italy area of Melbourne. It was the best thing I ever had in my entire trip to Melbourne. After that time, I've been obsessed with finding a great meatball sandwich. When I saw that Nom claimed to have the ultimate meatball sandwich, I had to try it out. Verdict? Not as good as the place in Melbourne, but pretty close. The meatballs were soft and cooked to a medium rare. It was packed with herbs. The tomato sauce was tangy and rich. It soaked into the soft sandwich bread. Biting in, cheesey strands strung out into my mouth. It was pretty good. The fries were super crispy and not oily. I love that they gave me a good small saucer plate full of ketchup.

 NOM's signature ice cream sliders. Isn't this the cutest thing ever? Beautifully presented on a tiny cast iron plate, a tiny hamburger with a ball of ice cream with fried lotus root. Dusted with powdered sugar. The lotus root was crunchy like chips and great when I dipped them into the ice cream. The ice cream was vanilla in flavor and very creamy. It had a spread of yuzu in it which gave it a bitter tartness that balance all the sweetness. The burger bun was actually cake. This was not only cute but delicious.

 I was so full afterwards. I actually couldn't finish most of my meal. I was that full. This is definitely a great place for men or those with a huge appetite. Will return and would recommend it to friends especially certain male friends of mine who eat nothing but meat and no veggies.
