Already home to one of Capri's top dining rooms, Grand Hotel Quisisana debuts a more trendy but equally upscale dining scene with Rendez-Vous. A street address along Via Camerelle feels less hotel eatery and more glamorous supper club with its glossy- monochromatic façade etched in glass. Inside, a palette of ornate wood-paneled walls of another time backdrops sleek white leather banquettes and Louis chairs in glossy black paint and white leather backing. White glove service prevails with a sexy late-night dining scene that unfolds during August high-season privy to $1000-bottles of bubbly and ornate caviar service ordered by visiting CEOs and occasional oligarch.
The Food
A traditional Caprese menu with international add-ons like a seasonal sushi chef begins with zucchini flowers filled with delicate ricotta, boiled egg with caviar and classic shrimp cocktail. Pasta course includes ravioli stuffed with caciotta cheese made on Capri, tagliolini with summer truffles and basil-shrimp linguine. Main course offering include Milanese turbot served with boiled potatoes, grilled swordfish with capers and veal cordon bleu with fired potatoes.
Last Word
Grand Hotel Quisisana adds grand supper club to its restaurant roster offering traditional dishes with a cosmopolitan flair.
