Ingredient appreciation — what makes Risotto special

What sets Risotto apart is the handling of olive oil. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the deeply savory result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

ingredient simplicity and quality are the guiding principles. The a Neapolitan pizzeria atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had Chianti as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Risotto is the place to start.
