If you love Italian cuisine, you will be then interested in the restaurant I am going to tell you about. This is not necessarily a new experience to me, as I have been before to the hotel that houses the restaurant, but I did notice a better approach and will be the first time I tell you about it. The restaurant is called Bocconi and it can be found in the Amigo Hotel, in Brussels. Its mission is to make the people in Brussels become more acquainted with the Mediterranean flavors, through a wide array of fine dishes from the Italian cuisine. It is definitely something you would want to try.

Returning to the Amigo Hotel, I had a déjà-vu feeling. The same warm and welcoming environment I knew was in front of my eyes. The décor hasn?t change over time, the same stylish atmosphere with a touch of surrealism. Due to my return here, I had the opportunity to serve lunch at the hotel?s restaurant, the Bocconi. The restaurant has a pleasant, intimate, and cozy atmosphere, not being too far away from the Grand Place. Because it was just lunch and the time was rather short, I opted for a quick lunch with several light dishes.
I started with a dish of calamari fritti or fried calamari, which were crisp and tender at the same time. The dish was a delight. Then I enjoyed a bufalla with tomatoes and bread croutons, very refreshing and nourishing at the same time. The next dish contained a veal carpacio, perfectly done, not too raw and not too well done, which was seasoned perfectly...
