At the launch of 3SIXTY Liquid Lounge


Walking the cobbled paths of Montecasino in high heels is always an arduous undertaking but it was a walk worth the risk, as across the cobblestone bridge within the confines of the casino floor lies the spectacular new entertainment venue 3SIXTYoLiquid Lounge.
 


We were greeted by hot girls with painted on skin and a delicious drink that I could have done with a boot load of (Champagne I think).
 


The modern, chic interior boasts a restaurant and bistro, cigar & cognac lounge, cheese & wine room and frost-top bar. From the bar you can get; candy floss shooters served in test tubes, Black Forest shooters, Tequila with berries and the BullMeister where Jagermeister magically floats on Red Bull, to name but a few.




The menu is world-class with design it yourself options to boot and we got to try a few tantalising samples.  For entrees I tried; lamb fettuccine with snow peas, roast plum cherry tomatoes and parmesan shavings and the aged Karan beef fillet with shimiji mushroom, carrot puree and beef jus. Both of which I thought were simply delicious however I have to admit to testing the drinks before the food so my judgement may have been slightly impaired, as my companions were not as impressed by the fillet and thought it lacked seasoning. 
But by far the best treat, and on this we were unanimous, was the chocolate mousse in phyllo pastry. One bite of this decadently divine dessert (the beauty lay in its simplicity)and a week of effort at the gym would be undone-I had to try this cone-shaped wonder twice just to make sure the first one wasn’t a fluke of course. The star of this dessert that literally and deliciously held it all together was the phyllo pastry- delicate sheets of sheer delight- if you need just one reason to visit 3Sixty then this is it.
 
 
As beautiful as it may be, beware of the cobbled paths! Make sure you have a sturdy shoulder to help you over the cobbled walkways, after a night of over-indulging and one too many’s falling off one’s high-heels is a very real possibility.
