Lincontro is a small restaurant with an understated entrance and about a dozen tables.I strolled in and spotted the owners in the back corner enjoying their own lunch, as I settled down to enjoy mine I had a quick glance around the restaurant and spotted a number of fantastic photographs of various movie stars and iconic figures.
The place was very quiet, with only a few other customers in the restaurant. “Everyone’s in St. Tropez”, my host for the lunch explains.
The menus arrive and I have a quick glance over the options spread across two separate menus.
After a brief scan I have already spotted four different options that I might like to try. “You can chose anything from either menu, mix and match”, the waiter explained... as if I wasn’t struggling to choose already.
It must have taken 20 minutes of discussing the menu, with the conversation leading off on various tangents. Finally though, I went for the Salmon and no more than 5 minutes later a fantastically cooked piece of gorgeous Salmon is in front of me - after devouring that I simply had to have the peach desert... but the treat didn’t end there. After my meal I was allowed a sneak peek at the private restaurant downstairs. A room about a third of the size with one long table, a definite for next time I want to play ‘The Sopranos’!
