Bianco是義大利文,指的是白色的意思,因此整間餐廳以白色為主要色調,老闆在香港和台灣兩地經營義大利的食材進口,橄欖油、醋、義大利麵、咖啡、紅白酒、礦泉水、巧克力等等;一直希望能夠以自家商品作料理開餐廳,同時也販售食材,目的是消費者吃過之後,便可採買相同食材回家如法炮製。基於對健康養生的要求,提供清爽不油膩的義氏料理,橄欖油和義大利麵皆為有機的,以自家商品研發菜色,每月更新調整菜單一至二次。

奶油黑松露蘆筍燉有機飯﹙310元﹚以進口義大利黑松露搭配台灣有機池上米,口感更勝一般義式燉飯。單點份量適中,也可搭配套餐,組合內容有湯、沙拉、飲料、義大利冰淇淋和蛋糕,以上任選兩樣加100元,三樣加150元,四樣加200元,全套加230元。

續隨子花雷鯷魚有機義大利麵﹙300元﹚將鯷魚炒到幾乎融化,香氣直接入味義大利麵。

義式冰淇淋﹙90元﹚的口味多達12種,草莓、藍莓、鳳梨、芒果皆是用新鮮水果和牛奶製作而成,脂肪含量比一般市售冰淇淋少,顏色鮮艷、口感濃郁,只吃一球是絕對不夠的。

Bianco means the color of white in Italian. Therefore the décor in Bianco is mainly white. From the front porch to the interior design it’s all white. The owner runs a business to import food ingredients from Italy in Hong Kong and Taiwan, ranging from olive oil, vinegar, pasta, coffee bean, red & white wine, and mineral water and chocolate and etc. Bianco was established for two reasons: 1. as a shop to sell Italian food ingredients and 2. as a restaurant to provide Italian cuisine by using all the in-house products. That way if the customers really like a dish they can ask for the recipe, buy the ingredients at Bianco and hopefully duplicate it at home. You’ll find most dishes nutritional, healthy and less greasy than most Italian restaurants. Bianco only uses organic olive oil in cooking and serves organic pasta. The menu is updated once or twice a month based on creations developed by in house staff.

Organic risotto with black truffle in cream sauce﹙NT310﹚is different than any risotto you’ve ever had. Italian black truffle and Taiwanese top grain-organic Chi-Shang rice is a hearty choice and good for your health too. The portion as a la carte is medium. If you’re looking to get a set meal there are many ways to do it. You can choose from soup, salad, drink, gelato and cake; pick any two from the above will be additional NT100, choose 3 will be another NT150, 4 will be NT200 and all of the above will be additional NT230.

Puttanesca﹙NT300﹚is to stir fry anchovy until it literally melts and the aroma blends into organic pasta. It is a unique Bianco’s creations.

Gelato﹙NT90﹚is available in 12 flavors. Strawberry, blueberry, pineapple and mango are made from fresh fruit and milk. The fat content is less than most ice cream and yet it’s colorful and creamy. You’ll be asking for more after the first scoop!
