Basilico Di Rey Bruno In Sirmione

13/04/2025: This evening I had the pleasure of having a nice dinner with my friends. The atmosphere was already warm as soon as we entered, the waiters and all the staff were on point, the wine glass was never empty from starter to dessert. We left with a bang! a slightly bland salmon but with a touch of salt had its own reason, polenta and creamed cod at the top of formula one and the scallop with leek cream transported us to the oceanic world. The mushrooms had a slight risotto flavor but were very good (Giulia loved them). The tagliolini were evidently the strong point, too bad my friend drank too much and acted silly, consequently she couldn't appreciate the porosity of the octopus. As for the second courses, they were real gems, the crab was a little uncomfortable to eat but when you tasted that little bit of pulp it was incontrovertibly an explosion of flavours, Giulia really liked the clams. The grilled prawns ended up a bit on the carpet, but really, really good. Between one cigarette and another the wine glass was constantly refilled and we really appreciated it. The dessert was a very original contrast of flavors, the freshness of the cream was an oxymoron with the warmth of the berries (almost exciting!), we appreciated the biscuit. When we thought we had finished (now full) it was time for the grappa, I recommend the combination of ginger and gogi berries if you want to appreciate even more the magic show proposed to the diners (I highly recommend going to the bathroom before it starts). Still not happy, we took the tour of the cellars, it was a pity that Marino was not there to explain to us about his friendship with Putin, on the other hand the grappas had a strong and pleasant flavor to finish the dinner. Final bill a little salty (80 pleura per person) BUT I must say well spent, we also identified in the maitre (very nice) a notable ability in taking photos and available to bring back the cell phone forgotten by our friend Pierbazzani on the table Highly recommended to all the inhabitants of the area and surrounding areas. I recommend that you don't let the driver drink.
