One Star: High quality cooking
What was once the home of ‘Xmun Borg & Sons Bakery & Confectionery’ is now an equally appealing restaurant; take a seat on the ground floor for a quiet meal or, for a livelier ambience, head downstairs, past the kitchen, to the stylish, stone-walled cellar. The restaurant’s moniker comes from the nickname of owner-chef Jonathan Brincat – whose culinary approach sees him bringing a refined, modern feel to traditional Maltese and Mediterranean cuisine. The attentive team are happy to make recommendations from the concise menu, which showcases quality seasonal ingredients in visually appealing, well-balanced dishes, cooked with a measured approach and an eye for detail. Guests can choose between a seven-course tasting menu and an à la carte from which four different courses must be chosen. The sustainable approach here is showcased by a focus on the wellbeing of staff through access to local therapists, supporting local producers and an extensive selection of drinks and cocktails from sustainable ingredients.
