The way we approach our reviews is to try a varied menu, more than once, and let our varied culinary experience guide us. Our group is formed by distinct food eating types and in this way, we try to cover the gamut of food tastes and give an honest and diverse assessment of the restaurants that we review.
Maurizio is truly a character and we love spending time with him and having some cocktails.
We had a martini while we waited for the evening to begin and for the sun to set. After checking out the menu and perusing the wine list, we got down to business.
We began with a Caprese salad but done in an interesting way, each of the elements were piled into a creative presentation and we dug in. it was delicious, with the olive oil, thick enough to get enough top quality mozzarella in one bite. It came with perfect ingredients and tomato that was just ripe enough. Next we worked on a foie gras duo that was quite tasty and interesting. We were not complaining as the sun was setting, the wine was delicious and we polished off this dish. We then continued with the parmesiana melanzana zucchini, an Old Italian recipe that was expertly explained by Maurizio, expertly prepared by the staff and expertly consumed by me in particular. Try this if you get the chance. The parmesan is cut thick enough to give the proper flavor mix in the mouth. We continued with more wine and then more as we were presented with a squid in fettuccini with tiger prawn, a true dish presenting flavors of Italy, it also comes highly recommended. As it got dark the ambiance at Da Maurizio became more intimate and perfect, we were ready for more pasta as the ravioli was next. We also enjoyed this tremendously as we switched to a red Italian wine from Tuscany. Our guest on this evening was Bart Duykers the Phuket wine expert so we knew we could not go wrong. Finally we finished our main course with a chateaubriand that was perfect in quality and skillfully cooked and left us full but completely satisfied. We continued with some stories as we rested.
We finished up with some desserts that were varied and even more filling and delicious and we continued with a long night ahead of stories and limoncelo as we shared the great stories that Maurizio provided. What a great evening. We can highly recommend this restaurant to all our readers and please visit our website at thinkmediahq.com to see the video review of this great restaurant to understand the ambiance better and please eat and drink well!
