Langosteria was the best meal I've had in Europe. At this point I've had several dinners in Paris and a couple in Nice. Lango Milan has excellent service, beautiful comfortable ambiance no matter the dining room which enhances their gorgeously plated delicious food with properly timed courses. And, if you're a wine drinker they have an entire book! Additionally, if you didn't guess by the name, this is pescatarian heaven.
My husband and I were famished upon arrival and food from every section of the menu looked amazing so we decided why not indulge a bit. We started out with cocktails, a version of a Manhattan and a Passion fruit daiquiri ( I find that a non negroni cocktail in Italy is sweeter than we get in San Francisco, CA) along with a couple of appertivos which were the red shrimp over saffron rice, rich anchovies on crostini, ( I'm gluten free and they swapped the crostini to gf and my husband could not tell but if you're celiac don't do the saffron rice as that rice "cake" is fried in mixed oil). Along with an amuse bouche of perfectly grilled octopus on a bed of uber buttery mashed potatoes, delicate mussels in crushed tomatoes.
Next, we paired the remainder of our meal with a lovely bottle of a Franciacorta Alma Non Dosato DOCG Grande Cuvèe Bellavista, dry, silky tiny bubbles full of terroir, green apples and toast. For the entree a flakey crispy skinned seabream steak for two, served with thinly sliced, blanched and grilled al dente bok choy and more of those heavenly mashed potatoes. We delighted in taking a bite of the tender fish with some buttery potatoes on the fork followed by a bite of the vegetal crunch. We added white asparagus, (it's in season) and topped with a drizzle of green sauce, also al dente. I wanted more green sauce.
No we weren't done! That course was followed by an amuse bouche of sweetest tomato gazpacho with an herb reduction leaf pattern and a tender bite of lobster.
