][1]Christmas has come early for truffle lovers this year as Giorgio Locatelli drops into Edinburgh’s Hotel Missoni next Thursday to cook up a six course white truffle dinner.
Giorgio will be joined by his Italian protégé, Mattia Camorani, head chef at Cucina in Hotel Missoni, to create the decadent dinner.
Decadent dinner
There will be a meet and greet with guests before the Italian chefs return to the kitchen to knock out dishes like the fresh egg pasta, Parmigiano reggiano risotto and veal fillet – all flavoured with the much sought after tuber. You can see the full menu here.
Tickets are £75 a head or £120 with a matched wine package. The dinner takes place from 7pm on Thursday 15th November.
Lunch deal
Of course, more wallet friendly options are available. Try the Missoni a Mezzogiorno lunch menu: £14.95 per person for 2 courses or £17.95 for 3 courses. It includes a complimentary selection of Italian breads and oils, and petit fours.
I’ll have the braised shin of beef with mash, ta.
