Le Bistro at Radisson St Julian’s launches a brand new menu… and we couldn’t be more excited

As summer fades to autumn, the hunt for cosy indoor eateries begins. This is when Le Bistro at the Radisson Blu St Julian’s comes to mind. A restaurant that is both sophisticated and a family affair. The décor here is stylish and modern yet homey with bright sunshine streaming in through the large windows in the afternoon and more of an elegant feel with dim lighting in the evenings. The warm atmosphere and the fact that they’ve recently launched a brand new menu of tantalising dishes and indulgences makes Le Bistro even more tempting to visit.

The cuisine is homey but classy, with Mediterranean dishes like pasta, meats, seafood and even Maltese specialities. While there are enough dishes on their brand new menu to tantalise even the most developed palate, flavours are simple and can be enjoyed by everyone. All ingredients are fresh and everything they offer is everything you’d expect to eat at home – just a lot more exciting, and with a little extra finesse.

The menu is filled with exciting offerings, making it extremely difficult to pick just one. However, going by the expert opinions of the attentive staff, my dinner date and I opted for the beef Carpaccio and pide ‘del bronte’ as starters. Pide ‘del bronte’ you ask? Turkish oval-shaped flatbread with Bolognian mortadella, Provolone cheese and pistachio. I absolutely loved this choice, and the fluffy sweetish dough with the cured meat and cheesy filling were a perfect match. The Carpaccio was a delight to the taste buds… thinly sliced beef Carpaccio accompanied with tasty mustard caviar and rosemary oil.
