Sapore: Spanish & Italian Treats @ Persiaran Ampang

We both love Mediterranean countries. Sun, happy people, delicious food and liters of refreshing drinks. Many of you know that Spain is on our top countries list when it comes to travelling. But it is the Italian cuisine which truly stole my heart during our visit! Is it possible to merge those two cultures here? I was pretty excited when we recently discovered new tapas place that has a description of  “Italian wine bar married with Spanish tapas” and that’s a merger we’re happy to toast. Oh yeah!

Sapore

An Italian Spanish-Mediterranean restaurant that serves Artisan food and fine wine.
All about Jamon Iberico, Tapas and Wine! – serving unique Spanish Italian Fusion cuisine where every plate is an experience, we would say.

Sapore is a family oriented and friendly lounge/restaurant. It isn’t just a place to eat fine Spanish and Italian fusion cuisines, but a place were you can relax, talk to people, have fun drinks and lay back while enjoying our food.

Sangria Red Wine – RM28
I personally love sangria very much. Maybe it’s because of it’s fruity concoction and the right acidity it leaves in my mouth. Cheers!

Basket of Focaccia (additional) – RM5
We were served their homemade Focaccia and if you would like to order extra, just pay an additional RM5 for them cos they were worth it. It has a lingering flavour that is not of flour, but rather an almost sour, barely the tang. And, the texture was perfect. The outside have the slightest bit of crunch while the inside is doughy without being underdone. You would be eating a lot of this as it goes so swell with all our orders of meat, pork lard (gosh!) and anchovies.

Lardo Flavoured Tuscany Pork Lard – RM25
This fine cold cut is made from cured pig’s back fat. You could think of it a bit like just the fatty part of a beautiful slice of prosciutto – but oh so much more. Sliced in super thin, practically transparent slices that melt on your tongue, it can simply enjoyed like this as part of an antipasto, or on slices of hot focaccia like us!

Queso Manchego with honey – RM22
We’ve never had any Queso Manchego cheese & Manchego is a moderately aged, hard sheep’s milk cheese. It melts well and is often used in quesadillas. Eating on its own it has this caramel and nutty flavour. Dip some into the honey for a surprise.
