1. Basilico
The Italian stalwart is celebrating its 12th anniversary with a special à la carte menu featuring executive chef Angelo Ciccone and the team’s signature dishes over the years. Created by Ciccone himself in 2011 is the focaccia al tartufo, featuring mascarpone, provolone and three-milk robiola cheeses sandwiched between crisp pizza dough, and showered with generous shavings of Norcia black truffle.
Head chef Luca Beccalli’s reimagined take on the humble lasagna, which has been on the menu since 2016, is also part of its signature hits. It’s the ultimate comfort food, as the luscious dish comprises silky beef ragout (slow-cooked for 12 hours) and decadent fontina fondue layered between homemade pasta sheets. The Best of the Best menu is available for lunch and dinner until August 31. Book here.
