Appetizer:
- little morsel tail vaccinara topped with sprigs of celery that opens positively meal accompanied by a cocktail offered by the traditional method of a small manufacturer of Zagarolo.
First starter for both:
- Oyster, muscat and iodized lettuce, the dish that struck me most, ingenious matching of tastes: oysters wrapped in a thin transparent sheet of bacon accompanied by a froth of Muscat, sweet, salty, bitter el'acidulo, spectacular, from a!
According starter for me:
- knuckle of pork, oil of thyme and cauliflower in sweet-sour: 3 small pieces of trotters breaded and fried with a sauce of white cauliflower, another great dish
According starter for my husband
- Cheese fried peppers and honey, 2 pieces of fried cheese served with red pepper sauce, perhaps the dish that I liked less, but the other diners greatly appreciated.
first course for both:
- broth with roasted potatoes, chicken and parmesan Pallottine: in its a simple dish risky but successful, 3 small balls of chicken with sesame seeds, in the middle of a ciuffeto first salt grated on which will be paid at the table of the broth that smells just baked potatoes, delicate.
According to the first for both: - Cappellacci poppy duck and beetroot, a dish that wowed us both for the colors to please the palate: 3 ravioli pasta browned in butter passage filled with a flavorful chopped duck meat lying on a beetroot sauce and topped with poppy seeds.
seconds before it pays homage to the kitchen di un gradito fuori menu - Insalata di coniglio, senape di Meaux e gamberi di fiume, un piatto molto particolare, piccoli bocconcini quasi ridotti in purea, accompagnati da una salsa di senape e una riduzione di olive nere, il sapore รจ forte e copre quello dei gamberi, ma l’accostamento funziona, richiama molto il coniglio in padella.
Come secondo io scelgo:
- Il tordo matto purea di patate con mollica di pane e coriandolo: 2 piccoli involtini di carne di cavallo accompagnati da 3 palline di patate ridotte in purea, la cui consistenza viene tenuta da una leggera panatura, un bel secondo, poco piccante, right amount of flavor.
My husband chooses: - cheek braised spinach and mushrooms and crispy confit : 2 pieces of cheek, a stew and a fried, accompanied by wild mushrooms and fresh spinach salad.
Dessert for me - burnt bread, milk, cinnamon and caramel: a kind of tile to the soft sweet taste of milk with a light caramel sauce and a hint of cinnamon, very delicate and perfect as closing meal.
Dessert for my husband - parfait grue salted caramel and mint between the two desserts I chose my own, maybe the caramel sauce too salty in the end surmounted the delicate flavor of hazelnut mousse.
Petit fours very good: 2 mini folders with apples and cream, 2 small donuts, 2 chocolate cakes and two cookies with pistachio ice .
