Gratinated Asparagus
The Surprising Side of Simplicity
In the new seasonal menu curated by chef Alessio Sebastiani, the Gratinated Asparagus stands out for its essential elegance. This dish celebrates one of spring’s most iconic vegetables, transforming it into a rich experience of flavor and harmony. The natural crunch of asparagus meets the creamy softness of the gratin, achieving a perfect balance between intensity and delicacy.
Ingredients That Make the Difference
Each component is carefully selected to enhance the character of the asparagus. The Red Cow Parmigiano — aged, complex, and enveloping — adds structure and depth. The agrodolce brings a tangy brightness that awakens the palate, while a delicate hint of cocoa surprises with its earthy, rounded aroma, completing the dish with an unexpected nuance.

Every plate is the result of a meeting between creativity and respect for the land, with the goal of offering an authentic, ever-evolving experience that follows nature’s rhythm and richness.
