08/11/2025: A simply unforgettable experience at the Inkiostro Restaurant in Parma! We chose the five-course Ikygai menu, an Asian-inspired experience that perfectly balances the creativity of chef Salvatore Morello and the incredible quality of the ingredients.
Each dish was a constant surprise: elegant, meticulously crafted, and crafted with great technique. From the entrée to the dessert, each course was a small masterpiece, with interplays of textures and aromas reminiscent of Japan, China, and Southeast Asia, yet always with a profoundly Italian soul.
We also chose the wine pairing, and I must say it was an extraordinary added value: the sommelier guided us with expertise and passion, suggesting wines that perfectly complemented the dishes—never boring, always surprising. Each wine told a story and brought out the best in the flavors of the menu.
The dining room staff was impeccable: professional but never stiff, smiling, highly trained, and capable of making you feel completely at ease in a refined setting. Top-notch service, perfect timing, and constant attention without ever being intrusive.
The setting is modern and elegant, with an atmosphere that exudes calm and harmony, perfect for enjoying a top-notch gastronomic experience.
In short: an experience of taste and hospitality at the highest levels, where every detail is attended to with passion and expertise.
A journey I recommend to anyone who loves signature cuisine and wants to experience an authentic experience, between Asia and Italy.
26/10/2025: I went with a friend in search of new flavors and food and wine experiences. I found a welcoming atmosphere, despite not being particularly attractive from the outside (it looks like an industrial warehouse). The staff were kind and helpful, and professional enough. I'm not a fan of Asian flavors, but the Calabrian chef truly knew how to blend flavors, making them unique, delicate, and delicious.
A wonderful experience that I recommend.
