Jamie's Italian

Staying up ALL NIGHT trying to finish my 4,000 word English essay, Italian food was the light at the end of the tunnel. Having had our valentines plans to visit Jamie's Italian foiled thanks to my failure to complete yet another essay on time, the boyf and I decided to celebrate the end of uni coursework with some of Jamie's goods. Appropriate considering watching Jamie's 30 minute meals has lead to countless wasted, essay-less hours.

All dressed up, albeit with my red eyes and dazed expression, off we trotted to Jamie's restaurant in the heart of George Square.

Large and open plan, the setting was simple and elegant with a lovely mellow atmosphere. Seated beside a rogue child, waggling his tongue and jumping around was an irritating start, however once the starter came all focus was on the food. We ordered garlic mushrooms in a pastry dish to share which was amazing, so good in fact that I forgot to take a photo of it. For the main course, the boyf had the Wild Rabbit Tagliolini and i opted for the pumpkin and squash gnudi, a delicious sweet and savoury dish with a surprising mixture of flavours in every mouthful; from pear, to walnut, to cheese and pumpkin.

Having stuffed ourselves to breaking point, the boyf accepted his limits whereas i kept on truckin' and ordered my favourite desert, Tiramasu. This was definitely the best I have encountered, with it's multiple coffee saturated layers, masses of cream and with the addition of orange mascapone it was an utter delight. 

Having eyed up many, many other creations on neighboring tables, i will definitely be returning with a vengeance (and maybe a looser fitting waistband).
