Instead of continuing to wander in the rain, we decided it was the right time to settle down and grab a quick bite. Located on the ground floor of the nearby Boscolo Hotel Exedra, Tazio Wine Bar provided the perfect venue for us to have a casual dinner while we waited for the rain to stop.
I seldom write about bread coz normally I don't eat them but these were different. They were soft, warm and very yummy. But then perhaps we were just too hungry.
We were a little surprised when our server presented us with an amuse bouche. The wine bar was an unlikely spot for fine dining but hey, we would welcome it with open arms!
This was a well prepared salmon roll with zucchini and cream and finished with a strong passion fruit emulsion.
Forget about starters, it was getting late so I went straight to my main course with this creamy barley with lobster and a pesto of celery. The barley had a lot of bite but the celery pesto was way too overpowering for my liking.
Perhaps simple is the best? Just a simple dish of fresh spaghetti tossed with seasonal seafood was all it took to keep us happy (and warm).
