Bellino and Bruttino in Bangkok are two sister bars bringing the charm and charisma of Capri to Bangkok’s coolest party street. Inspired by neighbourhood trattorias that line the sun-kissed Italian coast, the brainchild of this enterprise is film director Jay Boccia, who wanted somewhere with a soul where people can enjoy some hearty Italian food and sample some great value wine, before moving next door or onto the cosy terrace for a Perdomo cigar, classic cocktail or fine single malt whisky.There is a level of authenticity to Bellino and Bruttino that can’t be matched by the glut of Italian-themed restaurant and wine bars that have been popping up in community malls across Bangkok. Largely due to the excellent stewardship of Jay, Bellino and Bruttino are the kinds of establishments that a maturing Bangkok crowd need: a place that cares as much about its substance as it does its effortless style. With a glass facade and corner location, Bellino (meaning ‘beautiful little one’) is open and inviting. Tables sit just touching distance away, but any trepidation is blown away by the communal atmosphere. Smooth Italian jazz suits the mood perfectly and guests are welcomed with the most delicious, homemade Granita
