hands down, one of the best restaurants in chennai. surprised how this place isn't that popular when compared to other eateries similar to it. anyways, we found this place in zomato and decided to give it a try in spite of the high prices. but boy, wasn't it worth the price!? so, we started off with the complimentary breads which in itself was delicious. we ordered the soup of the day, which was a cream of carrot soup which was absolutely delicious and creamy. it had a unique taste and was easily the best when compared to all other carrot soups i've had. the garlicbreadwith pesto and sun dried tomatoes was such a delicious starter. it was almost on par with any good pizza that u would get in chennai. the chicken nuggets and sauteed mushrooms and artichokes were also good and came in sufficient quantities. however the standout starter should be the fried mozzarella and arancini balls served with onion rings and the chicken bruschetta. easily the best bruschetta anywhere in chennai and the mozzarella cheese was so soft , tender and fresh. completely impressed with everything we had till now, we moved on to the main course. although many places in chennai have ravioli in their menu, most of those say they're out of ravioli when we order. so it's been a long time craving and luckily, this place had it. and wow, it was so delicious that we even thought of having two more raviolis instead of desserts. it was that good and the sauce was absolutely gorgeous. we got both the chicken and spinach with ricotta ravioli and both of those were in tough competition with each other. the formaggi pizza was handmade and had a thin crust which was top notch too. the surf and turf with prawns and beef was a bit disappointing because the prawns were slightly overcooked but the beef medallions more than made up for it. the cook on the beef was perfect and went well with the condiments and the sauce. the desserts were more impressive and stumped us. we finished the first set of desserts in record time of less than 2 minutes. it was so gorgeous that we literally fought with each other to complete it. the signature mousse and panacotta was delicious and the chocolate fudge and tiramisu was outstanding. the hot chocolate was a big let down and that's the only thing which was of mediocre taste in our entire lunch. but still, i'd definitely give it 5stars coz of the ambience and the taste and quality of food. simply amazing and one of the hidden gems of chennai.
