News

I noticed an interesting couple of snippets in yesterdays Merc.

Firstly Elaine Reeves reference to the discussion on school kids food on Gobblers blog site, then the advertisement on the bottom of one of the pages, complete with photos of the new team at Fritto Misto.

The photos only had first names attached, but it was John and Joan Mahindroo. John has been round a while now, cheffing at various places like Rockerfellers, and more recently heading up the kitchens for the Hill St Grocers products.

Joan has also worked in quite a few places in FOH, including Revolving Restaurant and Henry Jones.

Now that will be an interesting development to watch.

Hmmm....another venture by mahindroo, none have been successful to my knowledge.

And with two very average, no boring floor staff. I can't imagine the locals are going to go in for their type of service.

It would appear that the Mahindroos might have an uphill battle, to judge by the two comments above?

My husband and I dined at Fritto Misto just before Christmas. The new menu is fantastic and the service attentive and professional. Well done John and Joan and all the best for the future at FM.

The ricotta gnocchi and the fresh trevalla wrapped in smoked salmon was magnificent. A real treat.
