Visited The Bibo last week to taste some new dishes on the new menu by the new Executive Chef Matt Repetto.
1st Dish:
Ravioli Alla Piemontese stuffed with meat in a Piedmont sauce
2nd Dish:
Porcini Mushroom Risotto
3rd Dish:
Lamb with Maitagilati in a lamb tomato sauce
4th Dish:
Filetto do Manzo ( filet of beef) in a green pepper sauce which is more like a peppercorn sauce.
5th & 6th Dishes:
Chocolate Crostata and the Chocolate Brick
My take:
I loved the light Piedmont sauce with the delish Ravioli Alla Piemontese stuffed with meat. The Porcini Mushroom Risotto was rich and wonderful. I loved the tender lamb as well as the type of pasta in the Lamb with Maitagilati in a lamb tomato sauce, however I didn’t like the texture with bread crumbs crunch that was in the sauce, this dish would be outstanding if it didn’t have the crunch in the sauce. The Filetto do Manzo ( filet of beef) in a green pepper sauce which is more like a light peppercorn sauce was outstanding and perfectly cooked. For a sweet finish, I loved the Chocolate Crostata over the dense Chocolate Brick and I could order Chocolate Crostata time and time again.
