Garibaldi's ground-floor lounge & bar is a pleasant hangout, though things can get exceptionally loud & boisterous after 10pm, if the live music kicks in.
Gnocchi with basil pesto sauce. Simple, well-prepared pastas are the order of the day here. For more elaborate recipes, head upstairs to Garibaldi's main restaurant.
Squid ink spaghetti, to stain our teeth tar-black. But it's all good.
Prosecco & Valpolicella Corte Giaro (Veneto).
Frangelico on the rocks & Irish Nut (kahlua, frangelico, amarulla cream).
The most potent cocktails we could find on the menu: Boston Beach Iced Tea (vodka, gin, rum, tequila, grand marnier, triple sec, sweet & sour, coca-cola) & Sade Limonade (scotch whiskey, midori, ginger beer, apple).
GariBar,
Bangsar Village, Kuala Lumpur.

ReplyDeletemichelle: heheh, it's something i rarely order =)
ReplyDeleteThe gnocchi with basil pesto looks like real yummy comfort food... Who would have thought it'd work well as a (more substantial) bar fare as well? I like!
ReplyDeletekenny: yaaa, gimme gnocchi instead of chicken wings, and i'd happily camp out at any bar! damn, i should have named my blog 'gimme gnocchi' instead of 'eat drink kl' :D
ReplyDeleteare the cocktails served in a really large glass or is it just an optical illusion :P
ReplyDeleteBaby sumo: heh, yeah, those cocktails were pretty large. All the more to drink! :D
ReplyDeleteGnocchi fan too! Sure looks good at Garibar.
ReplyDeleteYum List: yeah, am sure grateful that more and more places are serving good gnocchi! :D
ReplyDeletei do like the thin pizza at garibar, not bad and it makes nice snacks with wines.
ReplyDeleteEiling: yeah, it's so nice that ALL Italian food seems to go well with wine. Hehe
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA!!! I did not go there to eat but to dance...a bunch of ahem-something women dancing to 80s music. Had pizzas and cocktails, but I can't even remember how the food was....ooohhh, ah, it's just an illusion,,,
ReplyDeletedr bahma: hahah, sounds like a fun evening =)
ReplyDeleteWe survived to tell the tale....I think there is still an unfinished Absolut Vodka in our names there - they keep your unfinished bottles for you. Oh God, the sight of my girlfriends tottering over in their high heels to ask for Karma Chamaleon or Pass the Dutchie are imprinted in my mind forever. LOL.
ReplyDeletedr bahma: pass the dutchie! i haven't heard that one in quite awhile, heheh. hope you all get to go back and finish your bottle sometime :D
