Ventoro is an elegant Japanese restaurant in Florence with a refined atmosphere, where I enjoyed excellent nigiri and a wagyu omurice, though the plain rice in the omurice was a minor letdown.
Dishes mentioned
Nigiri di Salmone
The salmon was incredible, it melted in my mouth. The rice was served warm, seasoned only with vinegar, and the soy sauce with miso is spectacular.
Nigiri di Anago
A great hint of grilling on the eel, and the meat melts again.
Zuppa Miso con Alga Kombu e Tofu
A miso soup with kombu seaweed and tofu arrived.
Nigiri di Branzino
We continue with the sea bass.
Nigiri di Otoro
Wow! A very decisive tuna flavour. The meat with its fat completely melted around the rice. Probably my favourite piece.
