Avorio Restaurant

Visited this italian restaurant with my hubby and try out some menu here.

From the four menu we order, some are excellent and some was awful.

The first one was VITELLO TONNATO (thin sliced roasted veal with tuna mayonnaise foam). I think its an appetizer and placed at easy bites in the menu list. It taste so good that i would surely order this again if I come back to this restaurant next time. the mayo creme was slightly salty with blended tuna taste, the sliced veal was just right at the texture and juicy. take one bite of everything with a wrap of lettuce, yummy..., the next thing you know, the plate already empty ^-^. rating : 5 star from me.

For the main course i order RAVIOLI DI RAPE ROSSE CON SEMI DI PAPAVERO E PROSCIUTTO DI PARMA (homemade beetroot ravioli with brown butter, poppy seed and crispy parma ham. 

in the category "not bad" for me, the ravioli was big in size of each and only five pieces per portion. the portion was small enough that it will leave you starve through the night if you dine only with this for your dinner menu. taste slightly sweet from the beetroot inside, and yes, its red wrapped inside, unique right? with some salty ham put on top. 3star from me.

Another maincourse we choose was FETTUCCINE CON SPEAK E FUNGHI DI BOSCO (homemade fettuccine pasta with speak ham and wild mushroom).

From the look at the time it served on our table, we doubted it will taste better than what it looks. And... we was right, it taste just like some chinese cha kwetiau with strong garlic taste with ham and mushroom. Dissappointed -_-". 1star.

Finally, the best part, lovely dessert. We order my favorite dessert, CHOCOLATE MELT, i forgot the name on the menu, they used different name for this dessert. But, because the first time i taste this dessert with this name, so for me, it will always be chocolate melt, whatever you name it. You can tell from the name that its got melting chocolate on the inside that when you sliced it open, some melting chocolate will slipped out from the cake. You better eat as soon as it was served on the table, because the cake was warmed and combine with vanilla ice cream, the taste was heavenly. they put some cranberry sauce on the side which was perfect combine with sweetness from the cake and ice cream. 3.5 out of 5 star.     

For the drink we order some italian soda, we order one green apple flavor and one blueberry flavor. I prefer the sweet green apple than the sour blueberry. 

This restaurant is a bit pricey for this kind of taste. And if youre not lucky enough with your choice, then you may risk your dinner with awful menu. But the staff was nice and the environment and ambiance was also nice. Located at the Plaza Senayan 4th floor, phone 021-57936171.
