Find comfort, connection and joy by sharing food together at Manolas Deli Bar Bistro on Via Roma on the Isle of Capri. This Gold Coast institution has been serving locals and visitors alike for more than 25 years; soak up the sun alfresco at Capri on Via Roma, or dine indoors where the pizza oven takes centre stage, amid tiled counters, black and white table settings and potted greenery.
Next time you are looking for a cheeky afternoon or early evening cocktail stop in and try Manolas Negroni, recommended by mixologist Laura Camos Martinez.
"Our Negroni is a smooth rendition of the classic Negroni and our regular clients love it,” Laura says.
"Negroni is an all-time favourite drink of restaurant owners Con and Dia Manolas; this recipe was mixed as a momento of their first date.”
Made with thyme-infused gin, Campari, Vermouth and Aranciata, this drink is for lovers of long balmy evenings and deep conversations.
"So many of our customers have visited us on their first date and still come in years later with their first date, their children and their in-laws,” Laura reminisces.
Try this cocktail on a Friday afternoon to relax after a long and stressful work week. Alternatively, you could take the party home and concoct the perfect drink to usher in the weekend.
