Stellini Bar

Stellini has the simple but universal appeal of a little black cocktail dress. There are the intimate table settings, the specials penned on a tiled wall behind the counter, and a small but versatile Italian menu that's equally enticing to the day- or night-time patron. Chunky polenta chips with harissa dipping sauce make the ultimate bar snack, while mains may include linguini with crisp prosciutto tossed in fruity olive oil. The daily risotto may feature rustic combinations such as pork sausage and red wine. A basic tiramisu, served in a cocktail glass, could lack punchy liqueur undertones - a small wardrobe malfunction in a stylish offering.
