A TavoLa Italian Gourmet & Resto

It was a Sunday afternoon when several food bloggers and I attended a food tasting invitation at A TavoLa Italian Gourmet & Resto in Kemang area.

A Tavola - Literally means everything that goes to dining table. I like their concept which is to bring the traditional Italian culture together with original Italian products. In another word, A Tavola is a place where to gather, taste and appreciate the original Italian cuisine enjoying the slow food philosophy according to the old Italian life style.

A friendly atmosphere with an antique decor.

You even can feel a romantic atmosphere here in the evening ;) 

The only thing that I don't like in this restaurant is the plasma TV; hangs in the middle of the wall that could ruin the romantic atmosphere although soft Italian songs are played as the background music.

So, here we go with the food tasting menu that had been prepared by this Italian Restaurant. Buon Appetito!
