GADDI’S

-

More than 60 years after

Gaddi’s first opened its doors, they continue to serve up an unparallel­ed French fine dining experience. Interiors are luxurious with chandelier­s and crisp white linen cloths lining the tables. There is always a sense of occasion when dining at Gaddi’s; at night, a live band provides soft tunes to enjoy with your meal. Servers are friendly and extremely knowledgea­ble of the menu, with a strong attention to detail. The well-seasoned creamy lobster soup is a favourite here, which is served with a generous portion of sliced poached lobster. The panfried Japanese amadai is equally satisfying with its meatiness and crispy skin that provides contrastin­g textures. The roasted Pyrenean lamb is beautifull­y presented; the meat is cooked to the correct doneness without any gamey characteri­stics. The impressive wine tome is not to be missed; if you’re having trouble selecting the perfect bottle to go with your meal, the sommelier will happily study your ordered dishes before making recommenda­tions. While the Gaddi’s Band provides appreciate­d live music during dinner sessions, it may be best enjoyed at a table in the opposite side of the room, so as not to disturb conversati­on.
