Lucciola Introduces New Seasonal White Asparagus and Pistachio Specialties

Chic, charming and effortlessly convivial, Lucciola Restaurant & Bar is thrilled to announce the launch of its new seasonal menus featuring white asparagus from Bassano and pistachio from Bronte. Available for a limited period only, the white asparagus specialties will be available from now till the end of May, while the pistachio dishes will be available from 3 June till 2 August. These menus offer a unique opportunity to indulge the unparalleled flavours of one of Italy’s most esteemed culinary treasures.

Renowned for its tenderness and bittersweet flavour, Bassano white asparagus add an elevating touch to any plate. Harvested in Vicenza, one of the best-known regions in Italy for its white asparagus, this spring vegetable must be 18-22 cm long with a minimum central diameter of 11mm. Bronte pistachio is one of the most precious ingredients of the Sicilian cuisine, thanks to its bright green colour, sweet flavour, and distinct aroma. It symbolizes a harvest that withstands the volcano’s impact and takes advantage of its fertility. Guests at Lucciola can now delight in a gastronomic journey that pays tribute to Italy’s rich culinary traditions.
