Terttulia
The food-adda team was invited to Tertullia for a tasting of their new menu. I have been to Terttulia many times and this place never fails to brighten up my day and this visit was no different.
Ambiance
The three spaces within Terttulia
provide a unique ambiance and have a flow from one to the other. They have a
beautiful outdoor patio with unfinished white Mediterranean style walls adorned
with various artifacts. Inside, the Tapas
bar has stark monotone interiors, high tables and bird cage lights while the
more formal dining section has modern upholstered seating with soothing colours
and a home-style feel. Separating these two sections is a wine cabinet
showcasing their specially curated wine collection.
Food
The lunch started off with a wild mushroom cappuccino which was
rich and heady and set us up for the next course.
Then came the watermelon and feta salad, mini quiche and chili
lime and butter broccoli. The saltiness of the cheese perfectly compliments the
cool sweetness of the watermelon in the salad and the balsamic really brings
out the flavor of the watermelon. A great salad for a warm afternoon.
The mini quiche comes with a filling of corn and spinach with
melted cheddar cheese on top. It has a nice nutty crust but after the first
bite, it just melts in your mouth.
The Chilli lime and butter Broccoli was nothing spectacular.
For main course, we were served
the three mushroom risotto and Cajun styled Tofu steak. The combination of the mushrooms, red wine and
aged Parmesan cheese gives this hearty risotto a deep flavor. The
Cajun styled tofu steak was served with a warm couscous salad and the
tenderness of tofu went really well with the grainy texture of the couscous but
it was slightly too sweet for my palate.
For desserts, we had the Gooey chocolate cake, it is sinfully decadent and true to its name. The warm croissant pudding didn't quite match up to the expectations it had set with its wonderful presentation and still has room for improvement.
Would I visit again? A big fat YES!! Excellent food in general, superb service and a very funky ambiance.
P.S. - Kudos to Nishant, assistant manager at Terttulia, for being a great host. He is well-versed with the items on the menu and also with the variations that the food can probably go well with.
