When 8 1/2 Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA says it’s white When 8 1/2 Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA says it’s white truffle season, you come a’ running. This is most definitely the most decadent meal I’ve had this year. 

The never ending blizzard of white truffles! More on this later — still wrapping my head around the amount of white truffles I had in one meal 😆 from not one but three chefs!

Thank you so much for having me @nick_rotella @ottoemezzobombanashanghai @ottoemezzobombana_hongkong @umbertobombana @ottoemezzobombana_macau @marinodantonio 

White truffle menu is ONNN
