Priced at BD 25++ per person, tables will be set with roses, love songs will be played through the night and, of course, there is the food of love — Italian cuisine. Those that have been in Bahrain a while know though that Café Italia does ‘Italian’ the right way — every time, through its three restaurants in Adliya, Bahrain City Centre, and Seef Mall, the venue of the original trattoria in the Kingdom. Renowned for many dishes, it is the wood-fired pizzas baked in authentic ovens imported from Italy, which get guests talking. It is the perfect mix of the freshest ingredients, the right wood and traditional baking by artisan chefs. In addition, menus at Café Italia are well balanced and unique, updated quarterly to ensure that slower moving items are replaced by newer ideas and concepts, keeping the selection of dishes lively and customers coming back for more. Try out the delicacies such as the fettuccine di wagyu al tartufo bianco and you will understand why Café Italia has earned its reputation. Then, to refresh the palate, dig into the signature dessert of warm melted chocolate cake — delicious! E Call 17 744-774.
