Two Bar Seats, Please

Hi, we’re Jess and Giovanni Del Dotto. We created this site to share our favorite travel recommendations with friends and family. Here are guides to three cities we visit the most:

Some All-Time Favorites

The Bulgari Hotel, Paris

Thevar, Singapore

The Connaught Bar, London

Osaka, Miami

Some Recent Favorites

Mama’s Fish House

December, 2024

Maui, Hawaii USA

The number one must-visit restaurant in Maui was wonderful as always on our last visit. We recommend making a reservation at least 3 months ahead, and ordering the fresh tuna sashimi by phone 48 hours prior. Jess’s rec: toothfish & Gio’s: opakapaka

Maui Guide

THEVAR

MARCH, 2024

Tanjong Pagar, Singapore

Chef Thevar is our favorite young chef in the world, creating innovative modern Indian dishes in a 2 star Michelin restaurant that is well worth an entire trip to Singapore.

Il Gabbiano

APRIL, 2024

Miami, Florida USA

For the best views and service, Il Gabbiano consistently stands out as one of our favorite restaurants in the world. Jess’s rec: seabass with olive oil and white wine & Gio’s: cappellini all’arrabiata
