Zanotti Il Ristorante Italiano 1F Saladaeng Colonnade Condominium 21/2 Silom Road Silom Bangrak, Bangkok Thailand Tel: +66 2 636 0002 www.zanotti-ristorante.com

One of the biggest draws of Zanotti is that anyone can expect a warm welcome and attentive, intuitive service that anticipates your needs without being overly formal. The menu, which showcases the Piedmontese cuisine of Chef Zanotti’s hometown, Turino, is mind-bogglingly extensive. The food is hearty and the portions generous, with most of the ingredients imported from wherever they’re best produced. Be sure not to pass on the bruschetta that’s presented at the beginning of your meal. It is a delightful, bite-sized introduction to all that is to follow. The perfect balance of tart, sweet and salty flavours makes this simple, classic Italian offering memorable. The frito misto is also a crowd-pleaser. In addition to the handmade pastas, pizzas and steak Florentine, the sea bass baked in a salt crust is an all-time favourite.
