Villa d'Este


Antipasti Misti
Another serving of antipasti.

Villa d'Este
6, rue Masséna
06000 Nice
Mon-Sun 12am-2:30pm, 7pm-11pm

Notes:
Do you think the above picture looks a huge mess? Well, it is. A beautiful mess of Italian antipasti and according to the restaurant it can even be categorized a starter. Whenever I have inhaled such a plate I can hardly walk thereafter, but I tell you it is worth the pain. For my family it has almost become tradition that we need to visit Villa d'Este for lunch at least once when we're in Souther France to enjoy this beautiful plate of antipasti. It changes from day to day but includes all sorts of Mediterranean delicacies like little squids, marinated mussels and anchovies, brushette, all sorts of grilled or marinated vegetables and mandatory objects like olives, sundried tomatos, artichoke hearts and a huge chunk of Parmigiana. This will set you back around 15 euro, which I consider quite a bargain. Highly recommended.
