Now that winter is officially over, we’re ready to emerge from our blankets and indulge in some good food around the city. And if you’re confused about where to start, Bella Cucina in Gurgaon with its Italian cuisine and pretty interiors, is a safe bet. Here are our picks from the menu.
Not sure what to order? Try these signature dishes.
If there’s anything we love, it is a chance to taste dishes that are unique in both flavour and presentation. So while Porcini Brioche might look like coffee, it’s actually a savoury dish inspired by cappuccino.
Made with Kashmiri Morel Mushroom sauce, it has a thick foam that will stay for nearly two hours. Also, since it’s served with fresh bread on the side, this one makes for a great appetiser. Order it first thing.
Save some space for the Spinach and Nut Ravioli, which is served on a creamy bed of ricotta, pine nuts and truffle. A classic dish that is cooked using a mix of wine, cream and onions, it is delicious and filling at the same time.
With its authentic Italian flavours and fresh ingredients, this one is going to be the star of your meal.
Sweet, tangy, nutty and crunchy all at the same time, the Betroot & Caprese Salad is a must even if you’re not much of a salad person. It is one of their signature dishes for a reason.
The freshness of beetroot just adds to it all; vegetarians and diet conscious people will leave happy and full.
For the non-vegetarians, the Braised Pork Belly is a good option. Deliciously braised in a salty, sweet sauce, the melt-in-the-mouth dish is a winner. We recommend you pick a wine to pair with this dish; make your own belly equally happy.
If like us, you don’t consider your meal complete without dessert, this is the perfect end to your meal. The Espresso Coffee Mousse is decadent and indulgent. And if you’re still unimpressed, try their amazing Petit Antoine {cherry sphere and chocolate soil} and classic Tiramisu that will ensure that desserts rule your world forever.
#LBBTip: Bella Cucina also does a three-course Express Lunch Menu, complete with appetisers and dessert at just INR 1,150.
