In true Italian style there are several pasta dishes to choose from, such as, 'Spaghetti Carbonara', 'Risotto with Sardinia Saffron' and 'Pappardelle with Rabbit Ragu`'. For those who prefer stuffed pasta, they offer 'Homemade Ravioli filled with Maltese ricotta in a tomato and basil sauce'... divine!
