Our Recommendation

For Favola, the dishes below are our recommendation. Chef Domenico emphasizes on using the best ingredients to create the dishes.

Salmon & Seabass Carpaccio – The unique combination of all the ingredients gives the dish its multi-tier flavours from the sweetness of the caviar and the freshness of the seabass and salmon.
Risotto Bianco – The risotto is awesomely creamy and flavourful with generous butter and cheese. The chef uses Carnaroli rice which is a smaller grain with super-high starch content. It is often regarded as the best choice to make risotto as it can absorb a huge amount of liquid without overcooking. Other than Carnaroli rice, Asiago cheese, an Italian cow milk cheese which is mild in flavour is used. Lastly, the risotto is topped with shaved black truffle.
Braised Lamb Shank – Very tender we didn’t need a knife, just a fork is sufficient to peel off the wonderful meat. The lamb shank is braised for at least 3 hours at a low temperature to ensure the juices are sealed within the meat.
Tiramisu – A recipe inherited by the chef since 1956 from his mentor Mauro Ernesto, one of the first chef in Italy awarded a Michelin Star
