We had traveled a lot and I had remembered that the Bonzai Pizzeria has good Pizzas. So we stopped there and ordered - well not Pizzas, but did order their home-baked garlic roll next with a proper main meal.
The Garlic roll is a piece of bread almost like a cheese twisty / bun and the size like a large muffin or Austrian semmel. It was just the right size for one person - enough to get a good feel for the bread and satisfying enough to not want more to eat then what was on offer. The roll itself was cut 4 times across vertically down, and had nicely buttered garlic on both sides of each inside cut. You did not see any of the garlic-butter until you take a slice of main part of bread. There was plenty of flavour and smattering of herbs nicely hot melted, resulting in a soft and 'fleshy' bread on the inside – just crusty enough on outside. There may well have been a cheese topping on the top, can't remember and I did forget to take a picture.
We must have been eating at the wrong time - as the place can seat 80-100 and there were only 3 groups of paying customers.
The only negative -- it came as a "bit on the side" and for all of that- it was the last item to be delivered along the main meal. It would be quit possibly the best Garlic 'roll' bread I had for a long time and will take some beating.
