Il Ponte, Millennium Seoul Hilton’s popular Italian trattoria, will host a special promotion featuring magnificent truffle and pasta creations. For the entire month of March, diners will be able to choose from incredible a la carte options as well as a special Set Menu.

The a la carte options will include: Ravioli stuffed with Taleggio Cream and Black Truffle Foam (KW31,000); Fettuccini with Salted Anchovies, Black Truffle and Grated Parmesan (KW33,000); Homemade Ricotta and Potato Dumpling with Green Zucchini Pesto and Shaved Black Truffle (KW35,000) and Saffron Risotto with Green Asparagus, Black Truffle and Olive Tapenade (KW33,000).

The special set menu is priced at KW85,000 and will include the following mouthwatering dishes: Scallop marinated with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Lemon, Black Truffle and Rocket Salad; Light Asparagus Cream Soup; a choice of Homemade Truffle Pasta with Duck Ragout or Beef Tenderloin wrapped in Prosciutto Ham with Green Asparagus and Potato Gnocchi; to end the evening on a sweet and high note - Black Forest Tiramisu on Berries Compote.

Whether you’re dining a la carte or choosing the set menu, you’ll become intoxicated by the sublime fragrance of truffles, known as “the diamonds of the kitchen” in the culinary world. Found mostly in Europe, truffle varieties are also found in North Africa, North America, and the Middle East. Known for their high price and aphrodisiac aroma, truffles are sparingly used to enhance dishes. The world’s most expensive truffle was a 2 pound 10 ounce (1191 gram) rare White Alba truffle that sold for US$112,000.

Also at Il Ponte, every Saturday and Sunday at lunchtime (11:30 a.m. ? 2:30 p.m.), your children, the chefs of the future, are invited to explore their culinary and creative talents by making their own pizza! Our Chef will then bake your child’s masterpiece to simmering perfection!

Il Ponte features the finest Italian cuisine from tempting pasta and wood-fired brick oven pizza to mouthwatering regional dishes. Il Ponte also has an extensive choice of exquisite Italian and international wines.
