The meal kicks off with one of the gourmet small plates of antipasti, such as the creamy Burratina, paired with beetroot tartare, fresh mint and PGI Piedmont hazelnuts or the savory Gnocco Fritto, featuring crunchy fried bread dough filled with creamy stracciatella cheese and delicate Italian beef bresaola. For freshness, savor the Carpaccio Di Orata, a seabream carpaccio enhanced by crispy capers, red chili, basil oil, and mandarin dressing.

You can’t go wrong with any of these options-in fact you will be tempted to come the following day to try the ones you missed.
For the main course, indulge in the luxurious Cicatelli Ai Gamberi, featuring handmade fresh pasta paired with succulent prawns, datterino tomatoes, and a rich bisque sauce. For a comforting vegetarian option, savor the Polenta Al Forno, a gorgeous oven-baked polenta, topped with fresh black truffles. Seafood enthusiasts will relish the delicate Filetto Di Orata Alla Mugnaia, a perfectly pan-seared seabream fillet served with a fresh lemon butter sauce, topped off with capers, which is paired beautifully with roasted potatoes and an onion salad. Meanwhile, meat lovers can enjoy the hearty Tagliata Di Pollo, showcasing tender yellow chicken. The hearty plates are a generous portion and not only taste great but are also artfully presented.
