With a special menu from 3rd - 8th October
For Italians, the mushroom season is one of the most
eagerly awaited times of the culinary calendar. The
mushroom, a peculiar product of the funghi parasite, is a
great delicacy for which there are an amazing number
of tasty recipes.
Tiziano, our passionate mushroom picker,
a native of Bergamo, goes out every morning to "secret" woods
to collect what he calls "the flowers of autumn". For him,
gathering mushrooms requires skill and a respect for the environment,
in order to preserve these wonderful gifts of nature.
Giuseppe and Head Chef, Massimo
have put together some classic regional combinations,
selecting the most flavoursome varieties in season now.
