COL'CACCHIO

-

BEST FOR Gourmet pizzas in a contempora­ry setting. FOOD Col’cacchio’s reputation is built on its pastas and pizzas, although the wraps and salads are great too. Bolognese and lasagne are tried and tested pasta options – or try the pollo with chicken, mushrooms, spring onions and sour cream in a pomodoro sauce. The pizza bases are all perfectly thin and crisp, with carb-conscious alternativ­es available. The cosi verde boasts spinach, broccoli, edamame, basil pesto and spring onions; while the zucca is topped with roasted butternut, beetroot, rocket, avocado and seeds. Desserts vary from traditiona­l to innovative: think tiramisu or vegan amistoso with cashew cream, caramelise­d pineapple and coconut shavings. DRINKS The wine list is thorough, many available by the glass. There’s a decent number of cocktails, mocktails, beers and ciders. SERVICE Service is friendly and efficient. AMBIENCE The restaurant is divided into sections for different atmosphere­s. Choose a table beside the large windows, a leather booth, or dine al fresco. (LST)
