Last night was the invite only debut of Robert Humphrey's "Marcello's Ristorante & Bar", an exquisite eatery in Minden. What a crowd! From the moment the doors opened the buzz was on. The decor is stunning with warm woods and Tuscan tones. The intimate bar housed the finest wines. I watched the bartender whip up some pretty special martinis too. Sumptuous menu samples were presented by Chef Duglas Maquoy. My favorite, Arancini, (little oranges) originated in Sicily - Arborio rice shaped and stuffed with mozzarella cheese, breaded and deep fried. The Champagne Risotto with Saffron Shrimp was another hit. And, for steak lovers, what about the house seasoned Ribeye topped with dolce latte, gorgonzola and served with patate frite? Robert mentioned he was booked up for the next three nights. If this is any indication - book early. Easy to get to - just off Hwy 395 at 1799 Ironwood Drive. Minden. 775 783 3211 or info@marcellosminden.com. See you there! Congratulations Robert!
