FOOD & BEVERAGE
Bakini offers authentic Italian ‘cucina regionale’ by Head Chef Simone Righetto who has experience from two-Michelin starred Gambero Rosso. Simone brings both professionalism and passion to Bakini’s dishes, which are redolent of the flavours of Italia. Simone’s passion lies with pasta. As such, Bakini is home to the ‘Maserati’s’ of pasta makers, the Bottene . This sleek machine is used to produce gnocchi, spaghetti and ravioli daily. Two signature favourites currently on the menu at bakini restaurant are the ravioli di Baccala – pasta filled with smooth cod puree and served with a butter sage sauce; and the caramelle di barbabietola – hand folded pasta filled with a beetroot and ricotta mouse infused with gorgonzola.
