Service: Smiling, attentive and very informative.
Equipment and facilities: Spotless clean, superb washroom. Entirely non-smoking.
Prices: Reasonable~slightly expensive
Strong points: authentic Milanese cuisine. Excellent wine list. Superb products, be they loca,. Japanese or Italian! The best risotto in town!
There is little need to repeat why Soloio is simply and arguably the best Italian restaurant in Shizuoka Prefecture. There fore I will keep o describing the dishes we had the pleasure to savor during our latest visit!
Above is a carpaccio of very fine beef produced by Okanura Farm in Fujinomiya City!
Incidentally the appellation of carpaccio applies only to beef! how pedantic of me!
Salad of fresh mushrooms from Fuji City!
A constant favorite of mine: Shizuoka wild boar terrine!
Slightly extravagant when you consider the quality of the fish: sole/flatfish fritters!
So simple, but the “Dragon” (who is she?) just cannot visit Soloio without ordering it: potato and octopus salad!
Now, this is a first and absolutely elegant in spite of its name: home-made cocoa tagiatlle!
What we always come for: Piemonte Winter Truffles Risotto! Do I need to comment? LOL
And in spite of the Dragon’s protests I ended up with an affocado!
What’s next? Well, I won’t tell you until then! Lol again.
