Second one on the list: Bombana for dinner.
Wine by the glass selection was great.
Here’s what we had.
Bread basket- albeit a simpler affair than its French counterpart, was an incredible and aromatic prelude to the meal, especially when slathered with the accompanying olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Hoikkado scallop, nestled on a bed of smooth and smoky eggplant purée, its earthy notes enhancing the delicate sweetness of the scallop.
Spaghetti, perfectly al dente served with Sicilian red prawns, datterino tomatoes and citrus. The prawns, perfectly cooked, were succulent, fresh and bursting with flavor, whilst the sweet, tangy tomatoes and citrus zest provided a vibrant acidity that balanced the richness of the dish.
Baby Lamb from Aveyron, with aromatic herbs, black olives, and caponata (comprising capers and green olives, adding a tangy flavor). The lamb, incredibly tender and flavorful, (albeit too tiny as usual) was cooked to a perfect medium-rare: a seemingly simple dish, but in fact a masterpiece of culinary precision.
Short rib and beef tenderloin from the South Australian Mayura beef farm, served with whipped potato, all tied together with a rich red wine and plum sauce. The tenderloin, expertly grilled, was tender and juicy, while the short rib, equally impressive and slow-cooked to melt-in-your-mouth tenderness, added a depth of richness to the dish. The potato, with its earthy sweetness and creamy depth, provided a perfect counterpoint to the richness of the beef.
Figs Tart with flaky crust, filled with compote and topped with juicy figs. On the side: creamy, honey-infused gelato.
Slice of raspberry cake on the house.
Decadent finale: all you can eat from the chocolate trolley.
In summary: true culinary gem, with every dish meticulously crafted, showcasing the finest ingredients and the chef's impeccable technique and passion for authentic Italian flavors. Came close second as my favorite in the trilogy series.
