The Portobello side of the kitchen covers Italian preparations from housemade pasta through to risotto and pizza in the evening dining format. Pasta shapes are produced daily in the kitchen and matched to sauces from the Italian-influenced preparation range. The DESIRE bar programme extends the venue into the late evening after the dining service closes. Risotto is made to order in the kitchen, requiring twenty minutes for the correct absorption the short-grain rice technique demands. A wood-fired pizza section covers the Neapolitan format from margherita through to combination toppings. The cocktail programme runs through the full service, covering aperitivo preparations for early arrivals alongside stronger cocktails through the bar's late hours. Tiramisu closes the Italian dining sequence with the mascarpone and espresso proportion the dessert requires. Burrata with olive oil and grilled bread opens the dinner menu as a cold starter before the pasta or pizza course. The combined format allows a single visit to cover both dinner and the late-evening bar session without changing venues.\n\nLat Phrao MRT on the Blue Line sits within practical walking distance of the venue along Lat Phrao Road. Grab vehicles navigate Lat Phrao Road without difficulty from the surrounding Bang Kapi and Ratchada areas. From Phahon Yothin MRT, a short Grab ride covers the distance in under fifteen minutes. Reservations for dinner are advisable as the early evening tables fill before the bar programme takes over for the late crowd.","our_take":"Portobello and DESIRE in the Lat Phrao area is the right choice when the goal is Italian dinner followed by the late bar. The housemade pasta is the correct order from the Portobello kitchen and the risotto is worth the twenty-minute preparation wait. The burrata is worth having as an opener before the pasta course arrives. Book for dinner and stay through to the DESIRE bar session for the full combined format the venue is designed around.","custom_description":null,"hook":"Portobello and DESIRE on Lat Phrao Road in the Lat Phrao area combines Italian dining with a late-night cocktail bar in a single venue.
