Our experience this second time was impressive, with efficient and timely service and a bill that was delivered promptly, rather than having to chase it up ourselves. Again the restaurant was cosily warm and well patronised.
We went straight to the mains and I ordered the veal scallopini while my partner ordered the spaghetti marinara. My veal was splendidly tender and served on top of a very tasty mixture of what I believe was kale, finely diced potato and risoni. There were also slices of prosciutto on top of the veal and the whole was accompanied with a delicious sauce, see photo below left. I enjoyed this meal very much and found the combination of flavours very well balanced.
My partner's dish looked sensational when it arrived, with the mussels arranged around the mound of spaghetti and other seafood as shown under right.
It was demolished very quickly and he commented that the spaghetti pasta itself was freshly made and cooked perfectly al dente. The only downfall of this Martini signature dish was that the squid was overcooked and unfortunately tasted rubbery.
The Hahndorf Hill Rose that I drank to accompany my meal is a favourite of mine and complemented the veal perfectly. Overall the experience was very satisfactory and we will keep Martini on our list of good quality restaurants to visit for mid-week dining.
