Took the family - all five of us - to this tiny restaurant on Rosemount Place for dinner last…read morenight and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were greeted by the Italian owner and I felt a bit guilty as he asked a couple who had finished their meal if they were ready to leave in order to seat us. The owner - who in his authentic accent corrected our poor attempts at Italian while ordering - was friendly and took our starters order first. Garlic bread, bruschetta, melon with Italian ham, and Caprese salad were all good - the girls especially loved the garlic bread. The wine by the glass he told us was San Genovese and was As the restaurant name tells you, the main course is pasta - he had many specials in addition to the regular menu items. We each had a plate of penne pasta with a different topping. The Marinara had clams and prawns, my Rustica had eggplant and anchovies, my wife's Alfredo was cream based with ham delight, and the girls had simple pastas with fresh Italian sausage. The owners son, was the cook and he did a nice job in his closet sized kitchen we could see from our table. The desserts were also good, lemoncello, cannelloni, and a chocolate ice cream with hazel nuts that was excellent. Give this little restaurant a try when you are looking for a nice plate of pasta in a friendly - but small - place.

I love their cosmetics section (Lavera in particular) full of natural beautiful smells, but they also have vitamin supplements and healthier option food. Not so healthy but yummy treats are their chocolate pretzels, sooo morish! Shopping there isn't one of the cheaper ones. Therefore, it's worth it to wait for their penny sale events or some other sales. Also get their membership card and collect points!

While in Arbedeen for work, 8848 was recommended to me by more than one individual. I headed over…read moreto check it out on a Tuesday. Upon entering I was great by a warm smile and a helpful manor from the staff. The atmosphere was a confused mix in an attempt to be upscale contemporary crossed with leftover Asian knick-knacks. I ordered a bottle of 2014 Cabernet for 45 eros. I am accustomed to spending money on good wine but the waiter brought a 2011 (which was a horrible year) without alerting me of the change. After tasting the waiter confirmed the mistake and brought me a different bottle since they were out of the requested wine. For an app, I had the dumplings with lamb. These were fantastic. Highly recommend these if you are knowledgeable about properl

Again one of those places that I'm jot sure about if it's my taste, wrong choice or just unlucky -…read morebut in my case this place didn't leave a wow effect on me. It is a great shame as it was rated quite well from our friends and even my partner really enjoyed the FOOD. My starter (duck) was very dry small on some decoration that was very dry with lot of onion (not sure maybe that's how it should be?? - some modest local food, but then it shouldn't cost that much). My main and peshwari bread was just OK because I couldn't taste any flavour much in it.. But! Be prepared for generous portions and spicy will be indeed spicy }:) However be also aware that the TIMING might leave you quite inpatient and hungry - as it was in our case and another table (who complained to my boyfriend at the restroom :D ) we were waiting for around 45/50 mins for starter and the main wasn't much shorter. Therefore one star less. ATMOSPHERE - I think this place tries to get the posh vibe with high ceilings crystal chandeliers - clean look with pictures of Everest and Nepal on the wall (8848 being the height of Everest in meters) & SERVICE was pleasant/funny, however they seemed to be a bit nervous/shaky at times and brought us coffee that was swimming on its plate (details such this are nice to fix if you are trying for expensive look, but even in general it doesn't hurt to bring a napkin at least). In general - not really VALUE for money for me, but others might enjoy. I'm leaving the other star for next time, if there is any, to find out whether it is me or the food and the time improvement.
