Bar Mattino is situated on the corner of Abercrombie Street and Meagher Street (opposite Café Giulia). It's a small, neat, unassuming place with friendly service and excellent food: below, spaghettini with chilli chicken and olives, and pan-fried fish on a bed of lentils, roasted tomato and spinach, accompanied by (on the left) a fruit frappé and an apple and ginger juice postively bursting with ginger. Bar Mattino may be overshadowed by its trendy neighbour, but every time I've been there the food has been wonderful.
oh yum that spaghettini looks delish!
ReplyDeleteIt was! Just enough chilli to really make it zing, and the chicken was soft and juicy.
ReplyDeleteThe spaghettini with chilli chicken and olives looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThose red teapots have made my day.

Thanks Wendy! It was!
ReplyDeleteI like a red teapot myself, greenwords.
Glad you liked the photos, Marusya. I find it very satisfying to photograph food... and then eat it. My favourite so far (what pies! What cakes!) is Black Star Pastry.
