Needing more to munch, we walked over to Madisons, where the crowd was easing up at 10pm. Madisons' fritto misto (RM27++) comes in a snack-sized serving that's much easier to manage compared to most other Italian restaurants' sharing-for-two battered seafood platters. Slow-cooked pork belly croquettes (RM20++), moist, meaty and marvelous with corn puree. A nice surprise: complimentary sous-vide OP rib-eye. Unfortunately, we couldn't really do justice to this humongous portion of brawny beefines

Slow-cooked pork belly croquettes (RM20++), moist, meaty and marvelous with corn puree. A nice surprise: complimentary sous-vide OP rib-eye. Unfortunately, we couldn't really do justice to this humongous portion of brawny beefiness, since we were too stuffed by now. Madisons' cocktails are less extensive than Leonardo's next door, but the classics are present. From Mojitos to Margaritas, everything's fairly priced and fairly potent. Comparisons between Madisons and Midi 57 might not be warranted; both are different enough to thrive on the same street, though we hope Midi 57 will install more powerful air-conditioning (the temperature seems a little too warm) and perhaps add more adventure into its menu.
