Local truffle lovers’ mouths collectively water this time of year in anticipation of the coveted annual truffle festival — a tasty tuber immersion — at Barolo Grill, 3030 E. Sixth Ave.
Barolo owner Blair Taylor coddles the white and black “gold” that he personally escorts from Italy to Denver.
“This is one of the best seasons ever for the Alba white’s,” Taylor said. “The festival runs officially through Nov. 16, then after that as supplies last.”
The tasting menu is $135 for five-courses of truffle laden heaven on a plate. Additional wine pairing is available for $49. Prices do not include tax or tip.
“Chef Darrel Truett is doing a spectacular menu -the pasta is made with agnolotti ‘plin’ (baby raviolis Piedmont style) stuffed with Castelmagno cheese (the highest alpine cow’s milk cheese in Italy),” Taylor touted.
