Ana e Bruno Italian restaurant in Berlin’s weste
Charlottenberg district is widely recognized as one of Berlin’s premier restaurants. With exciting, innovative – and healthfully low calorie -- nuova cucina emerging from the kitchen of Bruno Pellegrini and Andrea Girau, this upmarket restaurant manages the neat trick of appealing to gourmets and high-fliers while maintaining a warm, homey atmosphere. Luxury, hospitality and comfort are the bywords here. The peach-coloured dining room with its wooden floor, while linens and cheery flowers is smart, but not slavishly stylish. In summer a charming patio comes into use. In addition to the seasonally-changing a la carte there are four and eight-course menus showcasing the award-winning brilliance of the kitchen. Dishes include starter of scallops on sepia ink with risina beans and Pachini tomatoes, main course of breast of wild duck with Trentino apricots, puree of celery and Xocopili sauce and dessert of pear-Valrhona chocolate lasagna with kumquats and caramel ice cream. The large wine list is mostly Italian. Bring groups up to 60 to this exclusive location for private events.
