Event Details and Transport Info

Friday 14th

- Dinner:
7:00PM - Sofia's Pizza Restaurant - 855 Burke Rd, Camberwell.

Get on a train on the Lillydale line, and get off at Camberwell Railway Station
(~21mins from Flinders st. Station)

$17.50 per head gives all you can eat pizza, all you can eat pasta, a dessert and a coffee.
Considering a pizza is $10 and a coffee is $2 and desserts are typically $6, this is a fairly good deal.
You can order additional or different items as well.
If you sit 'with the group', you will need to pay the $17.50.
Considering mains at many of the restaurants that were suggested were more than this (typically $20 upwards), it is a very good deal.
