SN3O5583

Chef Takehiko Katoh/加藤武彦さん does come with some interesting variations albeit logical!

SN3O5584

If you want dark brown tagliatelle, cocoa powder is evident. But bear in mind it is powder note sweet chocolate!
The slightly acid taste makes for a beautiful balance with the venison ragu sauce and some parmigiano and freshly chopped basil topping!

SN3O5585

Beautiful!

Italian Gastronomy: Local Seasonal vegetables Skillet at Soloio in Shizuoka City!

When a seemingly simple dish is a discovery!

SN3O5573

One overriding reason why I patronize Solio Italian Restaurant in Shizuoka City is that Chef Takehiko Katoh/加藤武彦さん uses exclusively seasonal ingredients especially when it comes to vegetables, especially local ones or from his own garden!

SN3O5576

Chef Takehiko Katoh/加藤武彦さん uses only olive oil, salt and paper.
Cooking the vegetables in a skillet without a lid over a fire and last inside the oven helps maintain the vegetables shape, color and consistency.
A simple and sublime way to enjoy vegetables!
Incidentally it becomes a vegan dish as well!

It was about time for my first lunch at Storia this year in Shizuoka City!
It is a good idea to come at around 13:00 or phone in advance as the place is really busy!

SN3O5491

Very popular with ladies at lunch time as this is a non-smoking restaurant!

SN3O5489

If you want a very good value and satisfying lunch try the 2,000 yet lunch set menu!
Chef Koushin Saita/才田亨辰さん, knowing I had already tasted his venison advised me to take Kuromasa Pork from Okinawa (not on the menu) instead!

SN3O5488

the lunch came with a choice of three pasta dishes. I opted for the vegetable spaghetti in tomato sauce!

SN3O5492

First of all the antipasto mist/appetizers plate!

SN3O5493

Hobo/Gurnard-Red Gurnard-Sea robin!

SN3O5494

Large mussles!

SN3O5496

San Daniele raw ham and mozzarella cheese!

SN3O5492

Cotecchino sausage!

SN3O5497

Sauteed rape flowers!

SN3O5498

Enormous green salad with parmigiano cheese!
incidentally most of the vegetables served at Storia come from Iwata City!

SN3O5499

The fish plate!

SN3O5502

From a different angle!

SN3O5500

Yellowtail fritter!

SN3O5502

Petit vert Brussels sprout fritter!

SN3O5503

Garlic toasted bread!

SN3O5504

The (small size) vegetable pasta in tomato sauce!

SN3O5505

So light and tasty!

SN3O5506

Grilled Kuromasa pork!

SN3O5507
T
his variety of pork is very recent as it has been recognized as such in Okinawa for only four years!

SN3O5508

Splendid vegetables!

SN3O5509

A colorful dish!

SN3O5510

Coffee served as it should be!

SN3O5511

Now, believe me, Storia’s tiramisu is something special!

At 20 US $/15 Euros, such great value!
