The GOODS from Cibo Trattoria
Vancouver, BC | On Wednesday, November 9th, Cibo’s monthly travelogue of food from the various regions of Italy takes us to Lombardy. This diverse region stretches from the Alpine meadows near the border of Switzerland to the cosmopolitan city of Milan and on to the Po Valley – the heart of Italy’s rice production. Executive Chef Neil Taylor’s menu showcases this widely divergent cuisine, and you can check it out after the jump…
Nervetti (crispy pork trotters) with Mostarda di Cremona
Casonsei (pasta) stuffed with salami, greens, raisins, ammeretti and grana padano
Risotto Milanese
Cazzoeula alla Millanese (pork and cabbage)
Lombardian cheeses with grappa or moscato d’asti
Torta paradise con mascarpone
Dinner for the all of the above is at the amazing price of $59.00/person.
David Fert, Cibo’s General Manager and Sommelier would be pleased to match each course with wine from the region for an additional cost of $59.00. All costs are exclusive of tax and gratuity. For reservations please call 604-602-9570.
