Creamy. Soft. Melting. Magical. It was pretty much love at first sight when a plate of Burrata landed on our table at Buffalo Dining Club. I'll be honest, what particularly drew me to this little part of Kings Cross was the flipping insane 97 percent rating at Urbanspoon more than anything else.
I've gotten away from the stigma of Kings Cross. There's so much more to this place than straight up gentleman clubs and random muggings. It's the hub of good food and you can pretty much find a place that serves up decent nosh at any corner. This place, for instance, lights up with its easy going atmosphere and casual dining. The small bar is accompanied by an equally brief but strong staple of menu items written in chalk on the wall.

| Burrata 19 Potato Croquettes Marinated Sicillian Olives |
They're accompanied by bread sticks, Sicilian olives, soft and creamy potato croquettes (which are pretty much a cheffy tatter totts). More could definitely be done with those potato croquettes but I suppose it's not meant to detract from the cheese. Of note is the spreadable 'nduja which is a mixture of sausage and peppers which liven up the palette with its slight spiciness.

| Bresola 16 |
They go through a wheel a week because there'a a bit of Roman tradition that arrives with the presentation of this dish; our pasta's place in and twirled around, catching the sides and scrapings of cheese.

Buffalo Dining Club is a celebration of all things cheese and really affordable Italian food. Cheese is the hero of this place and I wouldn't have it any other way. Cheese.
