The culinary team brings to life the diverse regions of Italy, offering a flavourful journey through its cuisine.
One standout dish is La Mia Parmigiana, a Sicilian-inspired creation that reinvents the classic eggplant parmigiana. This visually stunning dish features deep-fried eggplant slices layered with rich tomato sauce, melty cheese and fresh basil leaves, all elegantly presented with swirls of creamy white sauce and basil pesto.
Another highlight is the Ravioli al Tovagliolo, a historic dish that pays homage to Piedmont’s cultural heritage. Traditionally, these raviolis were wrapped in napkins and carried by field workers, symbolising a connection to the land and its people. At Amici, this dish is elevated with a contemporary twist, offering a delightful blend of tradition and innovation.
To conclude on a sweet note, the Cioccolato e Caramello dessert is a decadent triumph. This homemade tart, filled with rich chocolate and almond praline, features layers of silky caramel and zesty orange gel. Finished with banana, indulgent Baileys-infused homemade gelato and accented by edible flowers, it’s a finale that encapsulates the joy of Italian indulgence.
