Le Chevalier Errant In Manta

11/03/2024: I was invited to dinner at this restaurant at the end of the past week. Since it is a place I don't know, I first look for some information online and discover with great curiosity that, for family reasons, they offer cuisine mainly inspired by the Ligurian, Piedmontese and Apulian traditions. So I decide to order, from the menu, a dish that I already know is representative for each of these regions and in particular: - Vitello tonnato (typical Piedmontese appetizer) - Orecchiette with burnt wheat, Roman broccoli and fried breadcrumbs (typical Apulian first course) - Local rabbit with Ligurian Vermentino (typical Ligurian second course) finishing with a hazelnut cake with zabaglione and coffee. All excellent and each cooked, in my opinion, according to the best tradition: the veal with tuna cooked to perfection and plated in an exemplary way, the orecchiette with the correct consistency, tasty but not too savory and the rabbit with a very delicate flavour, but certainly not tasteless. From the wine list which, as far as I have seen, does not focus on the usual renowned wineries, but gives ample space to small and less well-known producers, I choose a Barbera d'Asti which does not disappoint due to territorial affinity. The environment is welcoming, the service is punctual and quick, but not rushed; the prices are consistent with the quality and quantity of the food offered (for the dishes chosen, approximately €50.00 cover charge, water and wine included).
