I had dinner at Jamie's Italian before Circuit Breaker started, and the food was much better than I had expected.
🔸
We were first served Nocellara Olives on Ice ($14.95, cover photo), where mild tasting black olives was served alongside crisp and thin carta di musica, meant to be dipped into the sun-dried tomato tapenade.
🔸
Then came Seared Tuna ($41.95, second photo) came with smashed avocado, tomatoes, fresh basil and extra virgin olive oil. The intended focus of this dish was on the freshness of the tomato and tuna, complimented by the richness of the avocado. The taste profile profile of the dish is not that strong, so a little bit of red wine vinegar is added to elevate the dish.
🔸
The highlight of our meal was the Lamb Chops Scottadito ($43.95++). What struck me was how fresh the ingredients tasted. And after a conversation with the chef, I got to know that they're sustainably sourced as well. Case in point, this lamb chops uses a 100% grass-fed New Zealand lamb. Chef grilled these lamb chops under a special brick made of metal (called Al-Mattone) and retained the juices within each rack. Salsa verde and agrodolce peppers were served to balance the meatyness of these lamb chops. And because these New Zealand lambs are clean tasting (not gamey at all), there's no need for mint at all.
