WHY GO
If you live or work in the Ortigas or Greenhills area, this is an ideal place for a meeting. Like authentic Italian establishments, the menu makes use of fresh ingredients available and spans many traditional Italian dishes such as the burrata de Altamura, porchetta, and freshly-made maccheroncini and has a large enough selection for most palates.
TATLER TIPS
The zuppa di funghi is thick but not creamy—good for people with a healthier outlook. The small dash of truffle oil gives it a lift. The stinco di agnello, on the other hand, is flavourful and tender due to the slow cooking, with the sauce permeating into the flesh. The mashed potato makes it a perfect meal. The fusilli, baked with scamorza and pancetta, is tasty and small enough of a serving to provide the right balance to the meal.
