A celebration of the senses

Fantastico at La Scala

Chef Luca Cesarini has created a menu of Italian specialities at the Sukhothai Hotel's La Scala restaurant. The dishes should tempt even the most fastidious epicure.

Mazzancolle (king prawns, cannellini bean salad and baby asparagus) will get the juices flowing as an appetiser. There is also a selection of wood-fired oven pizzas, such as the salame piccante (smoked mozzarella with spicy salami). Then perhaps you can treat your tastebuds to vitello (sautéed veal chop, eggplant ratatouille) and experience the pleasure of fine-dining Italian-style.

For dessert, a must is gianduja (chilled hazelnut soup with vanilla ice cream and warm fig cake). It will send your senses into a spin.

Call (02) 344 8888, extension 5736.
