Menu Details
Christmas Special Antipasto (4 Kinds)
The four appetizers are aged prosciutto with ripe melon, a caprese of water buffalo mozzarella and tomato, a blini with caviar and sour cream, and a tortino of beet-marinated salmon and scallop. The four flavors are served together on one plate, a festive way to open the Christmas meal.
Lobster Bisque
A rich, full-bodied bisque that concentrates the umami of lobster. Its deep flavor and smooth texture make it a highlight in the middle of the course.
Black Truffle Ravioli
Ravioli in a rich cream sauce that lets diners enjoy the aroma of black truffle. The flavor of the truffle layers over the creamy sauce, making this one of the most memorable dishes in the Christmas course.
USDA PRIME T-Bone Steak with Caponata and Mashed Potatoes
This is the signature main dish of IL LUPINO PRIME, a T-bone steak made with USDA Prime Beef. The steak offers the robust umami of bone-in meat and the natural taste of the beef, and it is served with caponata that brings out the flavor of the vegetables and smooth mashed potatoes.
Christmas Opera
A special dessert that finishes Christmas on a festive note. It lets diners enjoy the layering of chocolate and coffee that is characteristic of an opera cake, a fitting dish for the lingering moments after the meal.
