Molto is, well… a place I drop by often, so I’ll keep this post rough. Coming back after a while, it seemed like the place had grown a bit too.

Wine

This time we went with the recommended wine; it seems they’ve been importing wine themselves lately, so they picked out a bottle with outstanding value for us. The depth of knowledge there is no joke…

Carpaccio

A little something to start…

Burrata

Perfect with wine.

Roman-style gnocchi

This one goes perfectly with wine too.

Steak

Probably about as good as steak gets in Korea…

Roman-style chicken

The tasty plates just keep coming…

Tonight’s wine

It feels like being on a trip to Italy…

Salad

A palate cleanser.

Tajarin with ragù

Drinks first, noodles last.

HERR, a rum known as the “pineapple bomb.” It’s a Shinanoya exclusive, a bottle I bought on a staff recommendation.

They say it’s cognac cask, but how on earth does it get this deep? It was so astonishingly good I kept marveling as I drank. And it’s 63% too… I should have bought a whole case of this… The world of whisky really is unfathomable. A bottle under 20,000 yen turns out to be legendary… I guess that’s why I got hooked…

Caramels flown in from France

Nothing but gratitude.

Nibbles

Once the booze comes out, the nibbles come with it.

Truffle bread from Sikbugwan

I gave it a try…

It’s studded with bits of truffle… the aroma is no joke.

It went well with the rum too.
