Grappa's QRE

Grappa’s laid-back atmosphere contrasts with its upbeat vibe. Diners can enjoy drinks at the bar before settling down for a bite to eat. Much creativity can be found in the restaurant’s appetisers selection. Each served with a thoughtful presentation, the appetisers, such as Parma ham paired with roasted artichoke hearts, are delicious. Tender bits of lobster and penne cooked to a perfect al dente are smothered in a flavourful cream sauce in the Penne all’ Aragosta. The richness of the sauce is well balanced and doesn’t take away from the pasta or the natural sweetness of the lobster. A dish definitely worth a try is the Arrosto di Agnello al Rosmarino; a rack of lamb roasted to a crispy tenderness. Delicious in every way, the slightly crisp shell of the lamb seals in the meat juices. The dish is paired with a classic rosemary sauce, which enhances the natural flavours of the lamb. Gelatto and tiramisu are found among the dessert menu. The chocolate and hazelnut semi freddo is worth a try for chocolate lovers. The soft ice cream mousse is loaded with crunchy bits of nuts, offering a pleasant contrast in texture. There is a fair selection of wines as well as an interesting line-up of beers, both fruit and foreign. Although the restaurant can be busy at times, the staff makes every effort to ensure plates are cleared and glasses are never empty.
