NEW MELBOURNE BAR: Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons.
A quick glance at the lab-coat clad staff might suggest that GAS is yet another molecular gastronomy temple. But there’s no freeze-dried pancetta or Campari foam at Maurice Terzini and Robert Marchetti’s paean to the humble Roman trattoria. Nonetheless, the fitout isn’t exactly modest or traditional: black walls and a palazzo-load of Sicilian tiles dazzle with their daring though subtly evoke a subterranean bath-house.
Eschewing strict lunch-dinner sittings, the restaurant is designed for al a carte grazing. But GAS doesn’t take bookings, so it’s advisable to arrive early or risk propping up the bar longer than you bargained for. Still, with house-cured salumi, aged Reggiano and a small bakery of breads on offer, you might not be bothered about graduating to a table. Naturally, the drinks list is Italian led and GAS also provides a selection of specially commissioned wines by the carafe which should bring back some fond travel memories.
Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons – Crown Entertainment Complex, Whiteman St, Southbank, Melbourne. Phone: (03) 9694 7400.
