After Saturday night drinks on High Street, my girlfriend and I were craving some hearty authentic italian food. We stumbled across Trattoria Caffe Monteverdi and were immediately captivated by the traditional homely decor. .As we browsed through the menu the waitress served us warm bread and also explained the specials of the day. .For starters we had the sicilian caponata which was a good warm dish of eggplants, celery and other vegetables.

As we browsed through the menu the waitress served us warm bread and also explained the specials of the day.
.
For starters we had the sicilian caponata which was a good warm dish of eggplants, celery and other vegetables. The mix of sweet and sour refreshes our palette for the primi and secondi.
.
For primi we opted for a special of the day - the angel hair with duck ragu. Instead of the traditional beef ragu, a duck ragu brings a more sophisticated aroma and adds a rustic touch to the dish. The pasta was cooked to a perfect al dente and was the best companion to the salivating ragu sauce. I can only say I hope this one makes it to the regular menu.
.
For secondi we had the pan fried pork chop in Tuscan style which was a signature dish of the restaurant. It did not disappoint. The inch thick pork chop was wonderfully pan fried and was succulent and juicy on the inside. The accompanying heirloom tomatoes, beans and cauliflower makes the dish visually pleasing as well.
.
To top it all off we had the zuccotto for dessert. It was a creamy and delightful sponge cake filled with chocolate ganache and cream. It was light and just the right amount of sweetness to complete an authentic Tuscan meal.

在周六晚上在大街上喝完酒後，我和我的朋友渴望品嚐豐盛正宗意大利美食。 我們偶然發現了Trattoria Caffe Monteverdi，立即被其傳統的裝飾吸引😍！
.
當我們看菜單時，服務員為我們提供了熱麵包，還介紹了當天的特色菜。🤓
.
首先，我們吃了西西里的雜菜料理，是茄子，芹菜和其他蔬菜的美味熱菜。 醋的混合非常開胃，讓我們更期待primi和secondi（義大利🇮🇹叫法，primi像starter但通常是義大利麵，secondi像main通常是肉扒）
.
對於primi，我們選擇了當日的特別商品-帶有鴨肉ragu的天使義大利麵🍝，鴨肉代替了傳統的牛肉，帶來了更精緻的香氣，並為菜餚增添了質樸的風味。 將意大利面煮至完美的質感，非常匹配！😋😋如需要改進，我只能說我希望它能進入常規菜單，那長期都可以吃！
.
對於secondi，我們吃了托斯卡納風格的煎豬排，這是餐廳的招牌菜。 它並沒有令人失望，有1英寸厚的豬排被完美地煎炸了，裡面的肉質多汁。 隨附的煎香的番茄🍅，豆類和花椰菜，也使這道菜在視覺上也令人愉悅。
最重要的是，我們點了zuccotto，這是一個奶油和非常好吃的海綿蛋糕，裡面充滿了巧克力奶油和鮮奶油。 這甜品🍮清淡，適量的甜味可以說是完整的托斯卡納大餐。
