Just like how it’s traditionally done in the Northern Italian region, the pasta bar makes all the pasta on-site, using free-range eggs and flours. They also have vegan pasta, such as the gnocchi di patate, which are made with no eggs.
Here, you will find tigelle, a type of bread with filling that’s considered a staple in traditional eateries across Emilia Romagna. It’s cooked in a hot iron and filled with all sorts of toppings.
One of their must-tries here is Tagliatelle with Bolognese Sauce. Tagliatelle is a flat and long pasta made from fresh egg and flour, known for its relatively rough texture ideal to hold all sorts of sauces, especially Bolognese sauce.
Sharing platters include Tagliere di salumi (platter with a selection of meats), served with house breads; and Tagliere di formaggi, which includes different types of cheese.
Leave room for dessert, because they have chocolate pudding, tiramisu, and affogato to conclude your meal.
The restaurant is a fully licensed, no BYO restaurant. Since its opening in late 2022, locals have been raving over its curation of wines, such as the Bericanto Pinot Noir, a red wine from Northern Italy to accompany your pasta dishes.
