95 Keerom celebrates stuffed pasta with special menu this June

Pasta ripiena means stuffed pasta in Italian and Nava’s menu features his personal favourites of ravioli, tortellinini, fagottini and more, all handmade, silky smooth and delicately filled, moulded and cooked. I mean you had me at stuffed pasta, however, if you need further tempting then read further.

Chef Giorgio Nava

Parcels of pleasure

The special menu features delightful parcels of pleasure such as the seductively silky Ravioli di spinaci o zucca, a spinach or butternut ravioli with ricotta, topped with sage butter, crispy sage leaves and parmesan; as well as the absolute crowd pleaser, the Tortellini di prosciutto crudo alla panna which is a rich Parma ham tortellini in cream and topped with diced parma ham and 24-month Grana Padano. So comforting this dish feels like a warm hug from a nonna.

Could have eaten this three times over. A taste of the #parmaham #tortellini from Chef Giorgio Nava's #pastaripiena menu on at #95Keerom this June! ������������������������������ #foodiereview #foodlover #pasta #italianpasta #carbsarelife #pastalover #instafoodie #instafood #bizlifestyle #yum

Carb loving

Or perhaps, the Tortelli con asparagi  e spinaci, an asparagus and spinach tortelli in a vibrantly green asparagus sauce and topped with 24-month Grana Padano *speaka a more your language * - read in a bad impersonation of an Italian accent.

Richly layered lasagne and hearty cannelloni also feature on the menu.
