Zafferano’s forte is contemporary Italian cuisine. Roulades of skewered sardines sit amongst orange and fennel salad, with fleshy red pomegranate seeds adding to the creativity. Italian rice prepared with squid ink is firm, yet tender with a slightly salty taste. The shiny black rice, offset by the green fava bean purée, plays host to a crown of chewy mild calamari pieces. Thick rings of al dente calamarata pasta with jumbo prawns are enriched by aromatic Sicilian pesto and fresh mint. Ttry the Iranian saffron in a dome of almond sponge, enveloped by honey mousse with whispers of raspberry jelly.
