Antico Nuovo

Where do I begin to describe this amazing culinary experience at @anticonuovo__la!! From the moment I stepped into the cozy, rustic space to the very last delectable bite of the pistachio crunch ice cream, I found myself looking forward to and planning my next visit. FOCACCIA & WHIPPED RICOTTA WITH PISTACHIO PESTO: The lightest and fluffiest focaccia I’ve ever had. The focaccia was served warm and had the perfect crispy crust. Spread the whipped ricotta on the warm bread and you get the creamiest bites with the crunch of the pistachio pesto. The pairing of these two dishes was so good that I would’ve eaten the entire loaf except I had to save my appetite for the other dishes BROCCOLI CHICORY CAESAR SALAD: I’m not big on salads and am particular about them but this one was quite delicious. Instead of lettuce, they added broccolini to the cabbage and served it with a creamy Caesar dressing. Topped with toasted breadcrumbs rather than with croutons which gave it a subtle crunchy texture. PLIN DELL’ ALTA LANGA: The pillowy agnolotti were stuffed with beef cheek, rabbit and pancetta and served with this rich, buttery sauce that I wished I had more focaccia to dip in. I’ve never had rabbit before and just as the server said you can’t taste any gaminess. This dish was definitely a flavor explosion!!! PISTACHIO CRUNCH: This light and creamy ice cream topped with the sweet and salty pistachio crunch was the perfect way to end the meal. I wished they sold the pistachio crunch so that I can bring it home!! #dinela #ladining #laeats #culinaryadventure #eaterla #opentable #yelpreview #anticonuovo #italianfood #pastalover #laitalianrestaurant
