From the greeting to the cuisine to the drinks, everything was fantastic. Crispy rice and Dulce de Lechoza y Queso were excellent starters with the jam and jalapeño being the perfect burst of flavor. The Sweet Corn Agnolotti was light yet filling with delicious flavors. The sweetness of the corn and brown butter was absolutely amazing. A definite favorite.
