At the very first look the restaurant wins you over with its location. An evening can't be spent any better than having Italian meal by the lake.
Went there for an early dinner while the Sun hadn't gone down completely and i could still see the lake. The restaurant has a quiet ambiance and the soft Jazz playing in the background makes it even better. The wine display in the center of the restaurant tells you that they have a collection of some of the best Italian wines.
The recently launched menu has some of the most authentic dishes from Italy. I thought of going beyond pasta this time and totally loved it. I ordered Mozzarella and Ham in Corrozza with a glass of Pinotgrigio. I am not much of a ham eater but this dish gave me a completely different perspective. The cheese was soft and fresh and so was the bread. The tangy sauce made from tomatoes and onion was a perfect accompaniment. For the main course I went for PerCarlo (chicken stuffed with artichokes and seasoned with wine and herbs) served with asparagus, porcini mushrooms and baby potatoes. The chicken was tender and artichokes gave the dish a nice sour flavor.
The dessert menu had a new entry called passione or sweet passion (red berries and raspberries cooked in wine and topped with cream blended with brandy). The taste still lingers in my mouth and can give tiramisu a run for its money anytime.
The restaurant has an open kitchen and everything is cooked/baked fresh right in front of you.
Would definitely go back for another meal soon.
