An extension of the three Michelin Star venue (of the same name) in Hong Kong, Executive Chef Gabriele Delgrossi, along with Chef De Cuisine Nicoló Rotella, have together recreated the same lux, fine dining affair on the north Bund at two Michelin Star venue 8 1/2 Otto e Mezzo Bombana, the That’s Shanghai 2022 Food & Drink Awards Restaurant of the Year.
A pre-dessert offered as part of either the seven-course Tradition Menu (RMB2,280), Innovation Menu (RMB3,080) or the 4-Course Lunch Set (RMB888), the classic Sgroppino – arguably the most refreshing dessert there ever was – involves a tableside display of mashing lemon sorbet and vanilla ice cream together with grappa, homemade limoncello and Champagne.
The result is a fluffy custard that is concurrently bright and lusciously whipped, speckled with shaved lemon rind.
