Alpino – Italian
Stepping into Alpino feels like retreating to a secluded mountain chalet where the air is rich with the comforting, nutty aroma of bubbling raclette and golden, crisp-edged rösti. Guests gather around communal pots of molten fondue, pairing the indulgent warmth of melted cheese with the bright, bitter crunch of chicory and pear salads. It is a space where rustic Alpine traditions meet refined elegance, offering a soul-warming escape that lingers long after the last bite of velvety crema di lardo.
