TINTORERIA DONTELL


www.tintoreriadontell.com

Like something out of a spy movie, “Tintoreria Dontell” is (for want of less clichéd term) one of the best kept secrets in town. Run by restaurant group, Urban Secrets, the restaurant is cloaked behind an old drycleaners, whose shopfront does nothing to betray the hip restaurant out back. Only those in the know will be ushered through a cachéd entrance (with finger print authorization an occasional, cheeky requirement). Working under a general theme of Mediterranean fusion cuisine, the chefs remain ever true to their elusive mantra, changing the menu every two months (though quality is one feature that unsurprisingly remains consistent). At night, the eatery morphs into a bar and club. This restaurant group has more hidden restaurants dotted throughout the city, though your first port of call lies here. At the end of your meal, you can join the chain of whispers as to where to find more secret spots before collecting your freshly pressed clothes on the way out.
