There clearly isn’t enough apricot in this town

Not content with one apricot and veterinary blue extravaganza, Mediterraneo has opened Mediterraneo Mare (God help us all) which is a specialty Italian seafood restaurant located in possibly the most random location in the whole city (so random we’ve forgotten where!). And heaven preserve us (we’re in a Charlotte from a ‘Room with a View’ mood) the decor is (pause for dramatic effect) apricot and veterinary blue! They really need to stop hiring Robert Palmer and Don Johnson to do the colour schemes! And don’t get us wrong there’s nothing wrong with a bit of apricot, if you’re an 8 year old girl and the year is 1988, but seriously SERIOUSLY? We would never eat at any of the Mediterraneos because we have taste word on the street is that the staff are all madly trying to quit but the owner’s “wine consultant” (euphemism) won’t return the staff’s papers. We at Hanoi Guide don’t condone this type of behaviour and refuse to support any business that does. Anyway we digress (again) if you like your Italian served with healthy side order of crazy, then buon appetito otherwise head to Luna D’Autunno .
