gnocchi, gnocchi, and...more gnocchi

Gnocchi.

Are.

So.

Delicious.

A few years back Peggy and Ann drove Kate and I from Opera to what felt like a remote and far away section of Milan. They had found a gnoccheria, a restaurant that serves almost only gnocchi.


Did you know such a place existed?

It's a small place...you definitely want to call in advance.

This past fall we went back.

And I fell in love with gnocchi all over again.

The menu of gnocchi is so impressive. Piles of savory options and even sweet options for dessert.

You can practice your Italian while reading the menu.

Gnocchi made from potato, pumpkin and spinach. All served with a variety of sauces and toppings.

Two whole pages of options!

I don't even know if words can describe how much deliciousness is served in this place.

An antipasti is served...on the house!
This time, I had the gnocchi with pancetta and balsamic. One of us also had the cacio and pepe gnocchi. And the rest are just long lost food memories.

One of our plates of gnocchi...but I can't remember which one!

And another! Again, no idea which dish is which!

Dessert gnocchi! These I remember...
gnocchi with chocolate sauce, gnocchi with kiwi, gnocchi with apples (and cinnamon, obviously!)
So, for your next dinner out...

  1. Okay that is too tempting. Love the menu of gnocchi. We will have to go soon, like maybe this weekend. Grazie mille ancora!

  2. Looks delish! Katie has made gnocchi a few times. We like ricotta gnocchi, much simpler to make and lighter than potato.
