TOSCANINI RESTAURANT - JAMAICA TOURIST ISSUE 14
Toscanini Restaurant, a well kept secret in Ocho Rios no more! Consistently delivering authentic Italian/Mediterranean culinary delights for the last 12 years, the award winning Toscanini Restaurant in Ocho Rios has a loyal following of residents and visitors and a long list of VIP’s and celebrities who frequent the restaurant. Toscanini owners, siblings Lella and Chef P.G. Ricci have kept the dining experience true to their Italian roots but incorporate all the delights of the finest fresh Jamaican ingredients. While guests sip on a glass of crisp Pinot Grigio and nibble on freshly baked Focaccia bread, Lella the hostess, uses her daily menu blackboard, to review the selections of the day with the guests at their table. Appetizers could be a Steamed Lobster, Chickpea puree and crisp Fennel Salad dressed with Lime and a Scotch Bonnet Pepper infused in Olive Oil complimented by an entrée of Mahi-Mahi served in an ‘Acqua Pazza’ sauce. Your pasta dish could be freshly made Pappardelle with fresh roasted vegetables or tossed with Prosciutto and Portobello Mushrooms in a rich creamy tomato basil sauce. Your meat dish, a Pimento Roasted Loin of Pork with a Grain Mustard, Scallion and Wine sauce, a little Jamaican Pepper Jelly on the side just hits the spot. Finally, delicious homemade desserts will complete your dining experience. Tiramisu, Tropical Fruit Strudel or Affogato al Caffe … you will just have to visit Toscanini to find out what that is! Open lunch from noon - 2:15 pm and for dinner 6:30 pm - 10:15 pm. Closed Mondays. Call 975-4785 or email lella@cwjamaica.com.
