3rd visit to Latteria Mozzarella Bar’s Review
Food I tried:
Ingredients: 125g Burrata with Parma Ham (aged 24 months), Tomato Coulis, Carasaù Bread, Rocket Vegetables
🧀 This is a dish that keeps me coming back here. Upon cutting the burrata, it was creamy and the silky blend of stracciatella and cream oozes out. This was perfectly paired with and balanced by the savoury depth of the 24-month aged Parma ham, leaving a lingering milky aftertaste from the burrata in every bite. The rocketed vegetables, crisp carasaù bread and a slightly sweet tomato coulis add extra texture and brightness to this dish.

2. Gigli & Funghi (V)
Ingredients: Lily-Shaped Pasta with Porcini and seasonal Mushrooms, Garlic, Cream, Scamorza Cheese, Black Truffle
🍝 Al dente Gigli pasta paired with generous porcini and abalone mushrooms, where the truffle aroma wafts to you once served. Every bite hit with the earthiness of the truffle before finishing off with the gentle yet smoky aftertaste from the scarmorza cheese. Shaved black truffle slices brought light flavours on the side.
🥢Portion was great for sharing between 2, though it does get a bit heavy towards the end.

Overall rating for Latteria Mozzarella Bar ; Rating /😋😋😋😋😋: 😋😋😋😋
During my visits to Latteria Mozzarella Bar, I discovered how their focus on authentic Italian cheese, especially mozzarella varieties, elevates the entire dining experience. The Burratina with Parma Ham is a standout, thanks to the perfect balance between the creamy burrata and the rich, aged ham. It’s a dish that truly embodies why mozzarella-based dishes draw so much admiration. I also appreciated the use of seasonal mushrooms and black truffle in the Gigli & Funghi dish, which added a luxurious earthiness that complemented the pasta beautifully. Sharing this dish works well because while generous, its richness builds up, so pacing yourself is key. For those who love tomato-forward dishes, the Gnocchi alla Sorrentina offers a comforting and familiar Italian classic with a soft, pillowy texture. While it’s more on the simple side, the quality ingredients like buffalo mozzarella and Parmigiano bring out traditional flavors that are comforting and satisfying. Aside from food, the cozy terrace setting creates a relaxed atmosphere perfect for catching up or enjoying a date night. The attentive service, including timely drink refills and small thoughtful touches like complimentary tiramisu on special occasions, separated this restaurant from others. Lastly, if you’re curious about exploring more Italian cheese varieties, Latteria Mozzarella Bar often features specials beyond their core menu, such as shredded venison ragu with homemade tagliatelle or lobster dishes, adding an exciting twist to their offerings. Be sure to ask about their daily specials to discover unique flavor combinations featuring mozzarella and other cheeses.
