Prego
WHY GO
Enjoy rustic home-style Italian favourites in this much-loved casual ristorante.
WHAT TO ORDER
To begin, dive into the lavish antipasto misto Prego, a platter of assorted cheeses and cold meats that are profusely fresh and tantalising.
Next, dig into the cheesy goodness of the carbonara e castelmagno, piping hot fettuccine pasta studded with beef bacon, coated in egg yolk, cream and parmesan, tossed in a block of castelmagno cheese. The cheeses and cream are a right balance, and the beef bacon adds a much-needed smokey element.
Continue with the stinco d’agnello cotto a fuoco lento con polenta e parmigiano, or slow cooked lamb shank with soft parmesan polenta. Succulent lamb chunks fall off the bone in a nudge, bathed in a sticky and sweet balsamic vinegar and onion glaze, and paired with a comforting creamy polenta and crunchy stalks of asparagus.
End the meal with a tiramisu of an interesting taste profile — fluffy layers of mascarpone trifle, and espresso and brandy soaked sponge, topped with a layer of cocoa and cinnamon powder and a sprinkle of icing powder. Light yet robust, this is an unforgettable dessert.
