It had been awhile since I had dined inside the restaurant, takeout during the pandemic wasn’t the same. Visited recently to dine in and try some new late Summer dishes at one of my favourite Italian restaurants in the city.
1st dish:
Beautiful Puglia Burrata dish with basil pesto, and marcona almonds
2nd dish:
Watermelon, purslane, jalapeño, macedonian feta, aged balsamic, refreshing and I loved the flavours combination.
3rd dish:
Zaklan tomatoes, cucumbers, basil, ricotta, prosecco dressing; loved the flavours of the late summer tomatoes.
Mocktail
House-made Aranciata (spirit-free)
4th dish:
Agnolotti dal plin, chicken & pork, red wine, crispy sage; this was a rich and delicious dish.
5th dish:
Linguine special Quadra Island BC Honey mussels; served in a sauce of saffron, white wine, jalapeños and fennel pollen on fresh linguine!
6th dish:
Marinated zucchini, fennel pollen, chili, pine nuts
7th dish:
Sweet Corn gelato and Espresso Stracciatella
