Papaya Ristorante Pizzeria In Altavilla vicentina

25/04/2024: Extraordinary dinner, balanced and original menu, incredible raw materials, original surprises during the courses, impeccable service, from the head waiter to the chef who came to greet us before and after dinner to make sure everything was perfect. Cozy and elegant location. A restaurant definitely above several starred restaurants, it undoubtedly deserves at least one Michelin star.

16/02/2024: I had dinner at this restaurant with my boyfriend. The place is very nice, welcoming and at times sophisticated, as are the dining room staff. We opted for the à la carte menu and not the tasting menu. The choice of dishes is not huge but all the dishes seem interesting with very particular combinations. We opted for two appetizers: a marinated salmon tartare served in a cup with coffee at the bottom and a vegetable dish consisting of a fried artichoke accompanied by a couple of very delicate sauces that went very well with the taste of the vegetable. Oh I forgot, upon our arrival they offered us a welcome entrée. We were particularly impressed by the Americano (cocktail) served inside a sphere: an explosion on the palate. As second courses we chose a savory tiramisu, as well as braised beef served on potato foam and seasonal vegetables as a base, and a venison carpaccio. Overall we were really happy with the culinary experience which, even though it was a non-starred restaurant, managed to pleasantly surprise us. We will be back to try the charcoal mousse!
