Il Ponte Salutes the
Cuisine of Southern Italy

Il Ponte, Millennium Seoul Hilton's popular Italian trattoria, will host a two week-long promotion celebrating the cuisine of Southern Italy. From June 15th to the 30th, you'll be able to choose from a special menu of southern Italian delights, in addition to Il Ponte's always-popular menu.
Chef Anita Bidini has chosen representative dishes from six regions in South Italy. From the Sicilian region, a deep fried risotta with beef and green peas sauce will be served with seasonal lettuce. From Abruzzo, Chef Bidini has chosen grilled smoked mozzarella served with roast capsicum. Homemade tagliolini with little spicy prosciutto and onion sauce hails from Molise, while bucatini with snails in a spicy tomato sauce comes from the Calabria region. From Campania, pan-fried sea bream with black olives, capers, pine seeds and raisins will be served in a tomato sauce. And last but not least, a veal escalope top with prosciutto and sage in a white wine sauce will represent Lazio.
The southern regions of Italy are characterized by a rocky and mountainous terrain, hot climate, and peasant-like living. Southerners are passionate and friendly, and love to eat. Taking advantage of local vegetables and nearby access to fruits of the sea, southern Italian food is full of variety, passion, and gusto, just like the locals are.
The southern Italian dishes range in price from KW18,000 to KW37,000.
Il Ponte features the finest Italian cuisine from tempting pasta and wood-fired brick oven pizza to mouth-watering regional dishes. Il Ponte also has an extensive choice of exquisite Italian and international wines.
