L’ANTIPASTO
Creamy Cannellini Puree & Sauteed Escarole
Silky white bean puree infused with roasted garlic, paired with bitter-savory escarole, served alongside crisp Tuscan crostini, aged Parmigiano Reggiano, and a drizzle of premium EVOO.
🍷 Wine Pairing: Greco di Tufo (Campania)
A “Grand Cru” white from volcanic soils, offering a mineral-driven backbone and saline finish that cuts beautifully through the rich puree.
IL PRIMO
Pillowy Potato Gnocchi al Pomodoro
Soft, house-made gnocchi tossed in a bright San Marzano tomato sauce, garnished with fresh torn basil, ciliegnine buffalo mozzarella, and a signature touch of lemon zest.
🍷 Wine Pairing: Toscana Rosato (Tuscany)
An elegant, Mediterranean rosé with shimmering citrus notes that dance alongside the lemon zest and fresh herbs.
L’INTERMEZZO
Zesty Lemon Sorbetto
A refreshing citrus reset to prepare the palate for the bold flavors to follow.
IL SECONDO
Pesto Marinated Grilled Lamb Chops
Tender, herb-crusted lamb chops grilled to perfection, served with rosemary-roasted crispy smashed fingerling potatoes.
🍷 Wine Pairing: Etna Rosso (Sicily)
Grown on the active slopes of Mt. Etna, this smoky, wild-herb red is the definitive partner for charred lamb and aromatic pesto.
IL DOLCE
Traditional Italian Millefoglie
Crisp, buttery puff pastry layered with velvet pastry cream and fresh macerated berries, finished with a delicate citrus dusting.
🍷 Wine Pairing: Moscato d’Asti (Piedmont)
Lightly sparkling and fragrant with orange blossoms, this “palate refresher” ensures a bright, clean finish to your evening.
