Trattoria Afra In Valleve

24/11/2024: In a splendid location just above Torre Boldone (BG), this magnificent restaurant welcomes its customers with a window and a breathtaking view of Bergamo. The tables are well set with cotton tablecloths and assorted napkins. We were immediately accompanied to our table by a kind and smiling girl. Ours is a Smartbox tasting menu with numerous courses, from appetizers to dessert and coffee. Let's start with the chef's appetizer which is a marvel of cheese mousse and half a grape. Then the appetizer, crunchy millefeuille with courgettes and mushrooms and light fondue. Two first courses of your choice, tagliolini with clams, nettle olives and spinach with cheese fondue. Two second courses, always of your choice, sea bass, sliced. Here the raw materials are exceptional, the plating is done to perfection, you can see that there is a real chef in the kitchen. The desserts are no exception, the classic tiramisu made by them in an exemplary way and a vanilla semifreddo with melted chocolate on top. What spectacular dishes, what wonderful flavours, what a desire to return!!! All served in an impeccable, kind and thoughtful way, always smiling. I will definitely return and highly recommend.

10/11/2024: Stunning location even in November. Stellar food, credit to the chef and staff. Certainly better chefs than those who now only advertise on TV. Compliments and thank you
