The Bar & The Restaurant

The first time I heard about ‘The Bar & The Restaurant’, I didn’t realize it was actually a name of a restaurant. I thought it was a description and frankly speaking, I even thought one should have come up with a better name with more impact.

Anyhow, Despite their unmemorable name, ‘The Bar & The Restaurant’ caught me off my guard with impressive dining experiences. I found all the foods I had there delightful. Every dish came with nice presentation and the quality of the ingredient is above average.

We went there with a party of 3 for Lunch Set. The options is quite limited, yet as the compensation, each dish are finely created and made.

For the starter, We had Shrimp Caesar Salad, Salmon Tartar and Insalata Caprese. Shrimp Caesar Salad  was a nice dish. Shrimp was fresh and plump and the salad was not overdressing. Salmon Tartar was mildly seasoned just right to bring out the sweetness from the fish itself. Herbal aroma from dill sure goes well with Salmon. Insalata Caprese was impressive also with decent quality Mozzarella Di Buffala. Chopped Shallot spices up the basil sauce to new sensation.

For Main course, we had Unilateral Grilled Scottish Salmon which was nicely grilled and seasoned  with cream sauce. Vongole pasta was cooked to al dente, intensified with garlic olive oil. The biggest star of the meal would be Deboned Chicken drum with mushroom sauce. Rolled chicken meat was grilled to the perfect stage of crispy skin outside juicy inside. Decoration of the dish was very fancy and colorful.

We had Profiterole , Honey French Toast, and Lime Sorbet for desserts which all were intensely satisfying. They were indeed decent desserts and far better than those being served in most of average restaurants. Yet after we had exceptionally great savory dishes, we expected dessert would be a little bit more fancy.

Anyway, ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover’ would be the lesson I learned from about ‘The Bar & The Restaurant’. I would like to come back for their tapas dinner next time.
