Descend into Noni's stylish stone-lined basement space and be surprised by modern spins on traditional Maltese and Mediterranean flavours. Dishes are prepared with a light touch and could include a silky smooth parfait of rabbit liver, or wonderfully tender slow-cooked octopus with Israeli couscous. An excellent wine list and craft beers from Malta and Belgium are other tasty diversions.
