White Alba Truffles, tuber magnatum, are one of the world's rarest and most coveted foods. Truly wild, this fungus is impossible to plant, seed, or predict. Truffle hunters guard the secret of their favorite hunting grounds, and often use highly specialized truffle dogs to find them.
Found in a small area in Northern Italy, white alba truffles often grow in a symbiotic relationship with oak and hazelnut trees. Incredibly aromatic, their flavor is unlike anything else in the world.
White Alba Truffle season only lasts a few short weeks each year in October and November. Join us for the second annual week-long celebration of our favorite fungus beginning Monday, November 6th. Whether with a five-course tasting menu, or white truffles shaved over soft-scrambled eggs, we can’t wait to celebrate truffle season with you!
This celebration is building-wide! Check out the offerings at our sister restaurants, Sportello and Drink.
