Belcanto

Situated just across the way from the Opera House, the main feature of this restaurant is the fact that every evening at 8pm, the waiters put down their plates and napkins and burst into song. The repertoire is classical music from the last century.

A very high-ceilinged room allows space for a balcony from where the view is not as good as from down below, but you will at least be able to converse over the background of opera tunes. The coffee cream walls and white linen tablecloths are elegant and understated.

The dishes have themed titles such as Tournedos à la Rossini, Opera steak and Belcanto salad. I enjoyed the Tournedos à la Rossini, which was a wonderfully tender filet topped with foi gras. The food and atmosphere are excellent...you'll want to linger long after you've finished your dessert.

This fun restaurant is located directly across from the Opera House and it works hard to keep up the spirits of happy patrons who arrive fresh from a performance next door. Not only are the servers polite and quick to meet customers' demands, they also will sing an aria or two between the appetizer and main course.

Our consommé soup led to the main course of pork served in a potato and bread crumb "jacket." Served on top of mashed potatoes and vegetables it was a filling meal. The dessert was a crepe filled with hazelnut mousse and topped with an unusual plum chocolate sauce.
