The Rose Venice running a Black and White Truffle tasting menu the month of December–a bargain at $100 for six courses (with a good wine pairing for 5 of the courses for an additional $77). I believe the truffles are from Italy, for those to whom the question might occur. First course is a pizzette with sottocenere al tartuffo and buffalo mozzarella, followed by a delicious poached egg with leeks and tteokbokki mixed in with a black truffle puree and parmesan dash, next came the highlight to my taste–seared diver scallop with a maple-hazelnut gastrique on a pumpkin puree with truffles on top, after that a really good lasagna with taleggio fonduta, the meat was a nice bit of poached chicken on polenta decorated with more truffles, dessert was a caramelized smoked vanilla custard with truffle cream. For the wines, I particularly enjoyed the Elena Walch “Beyond the Clouds” and the Oddero “Bussia” Barola Riserva.
