A company of 3, we were there on a Wednesday evening to try what Jimmy  has to offer. This is 1 of the 2 of the JIMMY JAMZ, the other being in Elwood. It was rainy and we were hungry. Parked my car at the back and another friend took the tram up which was convenient from the city.

Right at the corner of Lygon and Glenlyon is where Jimmy resides. Easy not to miss it. In my head, I was already thinking about the Banana bomb dessert all along. But of course a meal first is more appropriate!


So looking through the extensive selection of gourmet pizza, I chose to have the Thai chicken, sweet chilli, fresh herbs, crushed peanuts & mozzarella pizza($9.90)!  Then I saw the rustic beetroot salad which I cannot say no to! wahahaha.


My other 2 companions ordered the Korean BBQ beef, capsicum, caramelised onion, Japanese mayo & mozzarella ($10.90), Sweet potato chips ($4.90) and Linguine with prawns, peas & mint. The food serving is not massive, but 'a just nice for one person' portion- We had altogether about 6 dishes and it was enough for sharing.


Everything looks good when served but the paper pasta don't looked that appetising- look below. Maybe its the appearance of the peas- i dont know. 


Silly enough, I forgot to take pictures of the other 2 pizzas as they were in our stomach before we knew it. 





Chilli Prawn Linguni Paper Pasta- $11.90





Banana Bomb - $7.90
Fluffy pizza dessert w/banana, walnuts, Vanilla Ice cream and maple syrup



Rustic beetroot with rocket feta & walnuts- $9.90



Overall, I had a fantastic time. Staff are friendly and helpful and great place to hang around for 3 hours to catch up with friends. 
My companion was very much obsessed with the sweet potato chips!:) I highly recommend the Banana bomb, rustic beetroot salad and the 2 pizzas!


UPSIDE
1) Super variety of Pizzas
2) Very Friendly staff- venue is children friendly

5) Many seats available. Big area. You can also probably booked the back courtyard for sunctions due to the sheer size of the place.
4) Bar available.


DOWNSIDE
1) 
One of the largest toilets I've been in, restaurant wise. But they are unisex ones. So, some dude before you may forget to put the toilet seat down or..... :P
