Grand Chef Annie Féolde cooks innovative Italian cuisine, drawing heavily on local products. Great wines chosen by sommelier Giorgio Pinchiorri, her life companion for the past forty years, enhance her creative, fine cuisine. Enoteca is wonderfully situated in a Renaissance palazzo in Florence, which is also home to the hotel Relais Santa Croce. The menu features turbot in a potatoes and sage crust, with string beans and lard from Colonnata; risotto with melted onions, capers from Pantelleria and Taleggio cheese fondue; roasted duck with Belgian salad and mint, candied apricots; around strawberries: cardamom custard and sesame biscuit, cream ice-cream and marinated strawberries. There is an unmistakable touch of modernism at this delightful restaurant.
