Borgo, a wildly dolce vita hideaway

Confected dish of asparagus, eggplant, rocket salad, apricot, peach and decoration of the dining room of the restaurant

In the central space of this superb decorating boutique in Oberkampf, the tiny inside courtyard has just been set up as a cantina to be enjoyed when the nice weather settles in. La dolce vita opens up its arms…

A real nugget at the heart of the shop. Striped red and white banquettes fly the colors of Bologna, the native city of the flagship, extra checkered tables, showcase the off-beat and warm atmosphere of Italy in the Sixties we all dream about.

Nestled comfortably between two cushions, we bite into the Boot’s specialties. Carpaccio of bresaola (18€), tomato and Buffala Campana mozzarella salad (17€), and of course their anthology pasta (penne à la bolognese, 13€).

Spaghetti dishes in the Carbonara with pecorino romano and bacon from Borgo restaurant

The menu changes every day, just like the pastries on the counter: tiramisu, lemon meringue pie, chocolate charlotte, meringue with marsala…

Be sure not to leave without having tasted the house specialty: tigelle, small round breads delivered straight from Bologna and stuffed on site (veggies, charcuterie or cheese). Perfect with a Spritz at aperitivo (8,50€).

We adore: the retro table settings, to pick up there.

 

Open Monday to Saturday starting at 10am.

Also discover Piero TT, the italian restaurant of Pierre Gagnaire.
