As we perused the menu, we were struck by the creativity and uniqueness of each dish. We began our meal with the Basin, little savory biscuits filled with Foie Gras and Anchovy. The combination may sound unusual, but trust us, it’s a game-changer. The rich, creamy Foie Gras paired perfectly with the salty Anchovy, all wrapped up in a delicate biscuit that simply melted in our mouths. We also indulged in the Salami with Butter and the Eggplant, two dishes that may seem simple on paper but were truly anything but. The Eggplant was a work of art, with its delicate presentation and subtle flavors that danced on the palate.

For our main courses, we opted for a trio of dishes that showcased the chef’s skill and creativity. The Crispy Cod was a masterclass in texture and flavor, with the crispy exterior giving way to tender, flaky fish. The seasonal produce in the tomato sauce added a burst of freshness to the dish, while the Shrimp & Tomato Linguine was a classic combination elevated to new heights. The Stuffed Plin with Eggplant was another standout, with the delicate pasta pockets filled with a rich, savory mixture that was simply divine. Each dish was complex and flavorful, with every component working together in harmony to create a truly exceptional dining experience. From the service to the atmosphere to the food itself, Solferino is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the best of Piedmont’s culinary scene.
