Lunch @ Garibaldi Italian Restaurant & Bar, Bangsar Village

Me and a few friends of mine decided to treat a girlfriend of ours to some good Italian food around the Bangsar area as Italian food is her favorite. After some research, the name Garibaldi's came up so we've decided to give it a try. It took us around 30 minutes to get from Bukit Jalil to Bangsar Village. Once you're there, the restaurant is pretty easy to spot.


The entrance of Garibaldi's. It is a restaurant plus bar. Since we went around 12pm, no one was really at the bar. Apparently, the place is very lively at night with the crowd and music. Must come here at night one of the days.


The waiter was very nice and patient, I must say. We took so long to order because the menu was so overwhelming - in a good way of course. We opted for the three course meal, but Garibaldi's have different courses you could try. Take a look at their website (below) to take a look at their menu. The ones we tried were:


Appetizers :             Bruschetta / Pumpkin Croquette/ Potato Wedges
                                                             +
Main Course :      Chicken Scallopini /Chicken Parmigana/ Lamb Shank /Grilled Salmon
                                                             +
Dessert:                  Signature Apple Cake/ Panna Cotta/ Chocolate Pavet



The interior of the restaurant is very brightly-lid and very cozy. We all ordered fruit juices and the drinks came pretty fast. The food took about 20-25 minutes which isn't so bad.

From the upper left to bottom left : Lamb shank, Grilled Salmon, Chicken Scallopini and the Chicken Parmigiana. It tastes as scrumptious as it looks!





The Bruschetta, it's a like o toasted bread topped with tomato and etc. It's amazing how a few simple items can make something so delicious.




The Pumpkin Croquette. Simple and tasty.


The lamb was incredibly tender, but the serving was a little big for my liking. The mash potato was a bit bland but still, an amazing dish.


The Panna Cotta. This was so yummy, I wished they served it in a bigger portion.

The chocolate Pavet. The strawberries were a little bit sour, but the pavet was good. Might have been way better if the strawberries weren't so sour.


Overall, I would say it was a good lunch and my friends really enjoyed it. The price totaled up to around RM 30- 40 per person which isn't too bad compared to other Italian places I suppose. I'll definitely come here again,.preferably to try their alcohol. LOL
