Ricotta Affumicata

Surprise and delight diners with the thrill of a smoke‑filled bell drifting through the dining room. As it’s lifted, the gentle haze and wood‑fired aroma set the stage for the star: cool, creamy Ricotta kissed with a soft smoky note. Each bite brings together the richness of the cheese with the delicate sweetness of fig, the crunch of pistachio, and a drizzle of hot honey for a perfectly balanced finish.
