I had one of the best Italian meals the other night at Fiamma. I did not realize there had been a chef change and renovation of the restaurant, but wow, what a change! It is a price fixe menu and they also offer a chefs tasting menu (not sure if they did this before). I decided to have the chefs tasting menu to try out all sorts of different dishes and get a feel for the chefs direction. I must say, each dish was very different and suprising, with top-notch ingredients and preparation. On the night I went, I had burrata, crab, pasta, lamb and a few other courses including dessert. I really loved all the courses, but my favorite was the lamb. It was so rich and tender and literally melted in my mouth. They also have a superb Italian wine list and how can one resist a nice Barolo? It can be pricey, but it is definitely worth it.
