Wood burning fires are essential for keeping people warm in polar conditions, cooking marshmallows, providing that delicious winter chimney smell and, of course, baking extraordinary pizzas. Today, you can enjoy all this and more. You'll have to provide your own marshmallows and ticket to the polar ice caps, but we've got the wood-fired pizza covered.

Grab any two mains at Barzurk Restaurant for just $30 and tuck inside this cozy gourmet pizza restaurant and bar for a bite to eat.

With exposed brick walls, gorgeous chunky wood tables and a beautiful long bar, Barzurk Restaurant is an inviting place to settle in for a few hours while you wine, dine and socialise. One glance at the menu and you will realise that you're dealing with a truly gourmet selection of pizzas. The New Orleans Pizza comes with cajun chicken, onions and cashews, finished with sliced banana, mango chutney and yogurt. The Hamilton Roast is a wood-fired concoction of roasted chicken, potatoes, kumara, pumpkin, spinach, bacon, pine nut stuffing and wild berry glaze. If you can handle the jandle, try an Aussie pizza topped with sweet chilli, prawns, feta, spring onions, pesto and lemon. Pizza oven aside, Barzurk also offers a wide range of traditional mains from Scotch fillets and pork loins to smoked lamb salad and spaghetti with meatballs.
