The restaurant is known for its traditional, hearty Italian fare that will transport you to Italy’s greatest city in an instant

 

Basilico is known for two things: its wide variety of fresh, authentic Italian flavours, and a world-class buffet offered in an elegant setting. Fresh, seasonal produce forms the heart of the Basilissimo buffet experience, with each section as expansive as the next. Start with a spread of at least 10 types of bread, assorted cold cuts, salads, cheeses, and no less than four different varieties of Italian heirloom tomatoes. Even the condiments corner is impressive, with a collection of Italian olive oils, aged balsamico, pesto dips, and flavoured salts for you to season to your heart’s content. Fill your plate with the pastas, pizzas, prime cuts of meat, roasted fish, meat stews and roasted vegetables, but save space for the dessert buffet, which includes a cheese room with over 40 varieties of artisanal Italian aged cheese. Top these off with truffle honey, nuts and dried fruit, before moving on to the sweet stash of traditional tiramisu, blueberry panna cotta and even a gelati station.
