La Tradision In Verona

04/11/2025: This is a legendary restaurant. I visited alone for lunch in early October. It's a bit far from the tourist areas and quite pricey, but if you have the time, it's a seafood restaurant worth visiting. The staff were also very friendly. To cut to the chase, it was absolutely delicious. Even the bread served before the meal was impressive. It's not easy to find good bread in Italy, but this place is different. They said both the bread and butter are handmade. My order was Crudo di ombrina, mandorle, menta e tourlo d'uovo marinato and Gnocchi di patate e basilico con scampi e bottarga fatta in casa. The Ombrina fish carpaccio had a wonderfully fatty flavor. The diced fish underneath created a fun contrast in texture, while the mint, refreshing lemon juice, olive oil, and nutty almond powder perfectly balanced the flavors. The yellow powder on top is pickled egg yolk, and its umami is incredibly intense, enhancing the overall flavor of the dish. The scampi, potato, and basil gnocchi was the best I've ever had, even though I'm not usually a fan of gnocchi. The texture was soft and chewy, and the scampi was perfectly cooked and richly flavored. The homemade bottarga was especially impressive, perfectly balancing the umami and seasoning.
