So today we're heading over Ou Kaapse Weg to the beautiful little seaside town of Noordhoek not far from the centre of Cape Town. Known for its laid-back attitude and beautiful beach it's also home to a couple of excellent restaurants. The restaurant...

Fabulous authentic Thai food at Erawan in Cape Town

I love Thai food…regular readers will know this. I've been to Thailand several times and cook Thai food frequently, too. So I was excited about visiting Erawan in Chelsea Village in the Southern Suburb of Wynberg in Cape Town for the first time. Chef...

Marcello's $$ · Italian Restaurant Address: 7115 Roosevelt Way NE, Seattle, WA 98115 Phone:(206) 527-4778 Hours: Open today · 5:00 AM – 9:00 PM Quaint location serving traditional cooking & wines in a refined, white-tablecloth setting & patio. I went here with friends for a birthday celebration. I personally would not have chose this restaurant. The servers look as if it were a pain to serve customers. There were 10 of us you would have thought they would of at least put on a smile for a nice tip. We found this place with a Groupon, which is always on sale. This is not one of the better Italian places we've been to. I had been here once before in the summer they do have a nice outdoor patio to eat on hot days. Some of the food are good some not so good. I recently moved to this neighborhood and wanted to get acquainted with some of the local restaurants. This is a lovely neighborhood and there are lots of good restaurants. > There are some good dishes and service can be selective Italian.... The Boulognese sauce is excellent. Bruschetta. Very yummy and generous portion. Pizza Marcello Ristorante Orecchiette Valeria Spaghetti with tomatoes and capers Orecchiette with tomato cream sauce. . When we returned in June, they'd shortened the menu (removing my favorites unfortunately). The server was brusque and seemed to make a point of ignoring our table completely. We ordered pasta and salads again, but all the food was mediocre and bland. this is what I ordered but I did not like the olives soaked in wine. I love olives and the wine was good just did not like them together I personally like really good service and when I go out that is why I go out as I am a very good cook myself and so I go out to be catered to this did not happen here. I will not be returning soon. But in all fairness some of the food was really good and it is a great place to go on a summer day to sit on the patio and have a light lunch.
