TUTTO BENE

Today (Friday) we went to Tutto Bene for Lunch in Southbank as a group.

 

I had never been before but I was sitting at my desk drooling over their menu which I found online.

 

The atmosphere was great and it wasnt too busy when we arrived. We had a table out on the balcony sitting in the sun with a gorgeous view looking over the yarra and the city.

 

 

I loved the feel of the place, true italian style and the waiter was a beautiful old italian man! You could just feel the love. Speaking about feeling all I could feel was my stomach eating itself I was so hungry by this point.

 

First they served us Bread and Oil - My pet hate is when places dont serve vinger. I cannot eat just oil.. One of my colleauges put some salt and pepper in the oil to mix it up abit.

 

I had such a hard time ordering as I wanted everything on the menu - Not kidding.

I ended up ordering the Italian and fennel sausage risotto with tomato and basil. Not one word of a lie it was amazing. The meat just melted in my mouth and the rice was perfect.

 

Sadly thou - Look what I found in my risotto?

 

 

 A nice chunk of plastic/glass - Im not sure what it was as I couldnt bend it?
 

Not impressed at all. It was such a downer especially since we had a fantastic meal!
The Waiter was very apologetic and gave me a free chocolate.. I understand it wasnt the waiters fault as it came from the kitchen but it was a huge letdown!

Despite, I would love to recommend this place just based on the food and service.
