“This second course is a gaspacho composed of prawns, figs, cherries and various herbs of which I don't remember the type. The most interesting part are the herbs. No, the most interesting part is that you would like a couple of liters of this thing here. But ok, it's the herbs.”

Carpaccio di Cuore con Salsa Agli Agrumi e Senape
This is heart carpaccio with a citrus sauce, mustard base sauce on the side and various herbs. Franci understood that among the various herbs there is shiso. It's delicious. This is crazy. This is mustardy but also citrusy. This is much more delicate. We had to start with the white one. Oh God, the heart carpaccio. Guys, if they don't tell you it's heart you don't even know it. It's delicious and that's it.
Gnocchi Ripieni di Ricotta di Capra con Funghi e Tartufo Nero
These are fantastic gnocchi, filled with goat's ricotta with mushrooms and fine black truffle. They look more like casoncelli than gnocchi. It seems full fledged like a casoncello. How much do I like being fed? It's not exactly super classy considering we are at a social table. But okay... Okay, guys, it's something between... Something between the two of us, plus all of you.
Tagliolini Freddi con Acqua di Pepe, Capperi e Ricci di Mare
The quantity of tagliolini is notable. Let's say that here you can't say 'It's cooked, you can drain it'. They are cold tagliolini that have pepper water on the bottom and then there is a sauce of capers and sea urchins. Plus various herbs which, as usual, I never remember. Cold pasta, which may seem like blasphemy in church, I instead appreciate very much. Maybe it's because we've been doing everything above 40 degrees lately, but it's mega refreshing and pleasant.
