Francesco BenazziFor the main course, I indulged in the Charred M9 Denver cut beef, a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality and sustainability by primarily sourcing beef from Uruguay, where farming methods allow cattle to roam freely. This exceptional beef showcased a perfect balance of tenderness and bold flavors, expertly prepared to perfection. It was accompanied by an artichoke in three distinct textures: the heart of the artichoke at the base, a creamy artichoke blend in the middle, and crisp young leaves delicately deep-fried on top. This harmonious blend of flavors and textures resulted in a truly remarkable and memorable dish. Pairing it with a tannic Piedmont wine, Accornero Bricco del Bosco 2013, enhanced the experience, with notes of red cherry, raspberry, strawberry jam, and sweet spices, culminating in impeccable balance and outstanding length. Dessert arrived in the form of pumpkin cloves gelato with chestnut flower cream, red plum gel, and pumpkin seed crumble. This sweet creation offered delicate flavors with intriguing clove notes that lingered. To conclude this extraordinary meal, I enjoyed a warm Illy espresso, accompanied by a selection of three Petit fours: mini macaroons with berry coulis, a fake pearl with Sicilian pistachio and raspberry insert, and a delightful chocolate praline with Tonka bean. Overall, my experience at Otto e Mezzo Bombana was nothing short of fantastic. With its Two Michelin stars, this restaurant offers a culinary journey that combines Italian excellence with the enchantment of Shanghai's historical Rock Bund. My bill of 1700RMB was a testament to the quality and luxury that Otto e Mezzo Bombana delivers. It's a dining experience I won't soon forget.
