Today’s itinerary

The concept

The concept is simple: it is a gastronomic Italian restaurant, which magnifies the Italian regions.

The setting

The establishment is very posh, located in the Hotel Amigo, member of the Rocco Forte network.

The menu

The menu is quite simple and has starters, pastas, main courses and desserts.

A 3 or 4 course set menu is possible and this is what we will choose.

The meal and the dishes

Here are the dishes we have chosen from the menu:

  • Appetizer : cheese, little interest
  • Pappa al pomodoro: excellent, balanced. Lack of salt perhaps

  • Ravioli Cacio & Pepe & gamberi: a delight, we would eat 3 times more
IMG_9978
  • Turbot: Lack of accompaniment and slightly overcooked
IMG_9979
  • White chocolate fondant: Surprisingly balanced despite the very sweet side of white chocolate

Culinarily very good then.

The service

The service was just perfect from start to finish. The dishes came in quick succession.

The atmosphere

Very quiet and calm. Perfect for a business lunch or dinner

Bottom line

An excellent experience for this restaurant with a reputation that is not usurped.
