Dinner with gf. Staff was friendly when booking and sent menu in advance. Seems there’s a private room seating 2 tables of 4 near the entrance. Wine list was ok. Ordered a 375ml carafe of Amarone to share. Not bad.As appetizers, ordered to share the grilled corn with truffle corn dressing. Corn was sweet (nothing cd go wrong with corn right?) but the dressing was yummy. Roasted artichoke came next. Surprisingly yummy. Artichoke tasted fresh, not bitter at all. Mixture of cherry tomatoes, crisps

Roasted artichoke came next. Surprisingly yummy. Artichoke tasted fresh, not bitter at all. Mixture of cherry tomatoes, crisps and generous helping of pine nuts balanced well with the artichoke. Parmesan custard was thick, but added to the texture. Good.

We ordered 2 pastas. Since we were sharing, chef made a point that the dishes should come one after the other.
First was the vegetarian maltagliati with eggplant and tomatoes covered in copious amounts of ricotta salata. In Italian, ‘maltagliati’ means ‘badly cut’. These square-shaped flat pasta pieces started life as the remains of rolled out tagliatelle pasta dough, typically found in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy.
Ricotta salata means “salted ricotta” in Italian, and is made by salting ricotta and then pressing it and drying it.
Pasta was al dente, but the dish was much too salty for me.

Then came the braised beef cheek pappardelle with gremolata and (chopped and mixed) porcini. Pappardelle is a large, broad and flat pasta, similar to wide fettuccine, originating from the region of Tuscany.
Gremolata is a green sauce consisting usually of chopped parsley, lemon zest, and minced garlic, and is used especially with osso buco. It’s a good idea to include the sauce here but the taste was overpowered by the very salty (again) beef and pasta mixture. Also couldn’t taste the porcini mushrooms at all.

I hope it was an unfortunate coincidence but both gf and I had diarrhea when we got home.
