BUE e SCL: Osaka or “Nipo-peruvian tastes”

NYC: A Voce Columbus or “Italian with a view”

The Columbus Circle fantastic view already worth the visit, but they also serve the sensational Italian food. The focaccia with olive oil is great and Porchetta (pork belly with figs, balsamic and pistachio) is a must!  The pollo al Matone was tasty and I’m not a big fan of chicken. And Spaghetti alla chittara with langostinos? I think everything they have is fanstastic. It looks expensive but believe me, it isn’t.   A Voce Columbus: 10 Columbus Cir., 3rd fl., Midtown. Tel: 212-823-2523. Mon-Wed, 11:30am-2:30pm and 5pm-10pm; … Continue reading
