Osteria Mozza
Los Angeles, US
An array of dishes showcasing fresh mozzarella anchor the menu at star chef Nancy Silverton's aptly named Osteria Mozza. From the iconic Carrara marble mozzarella bar – prime seating if you can get it – freshly imported mozzarella, ricotta and cream-filled burrata is conjured into the classic and inventive: atop asparagus, guanciale, almonds and breadcrumbs or creamy burrata with speck, Parmigiano and mint. A pasta tasting menu (Monday to Thursdays) offers up a selection of their best picks, from a smoked spaghetti with bottarga to a goat cheese ravioli with ramp butter. The tables teem with delicate handmade pastas and bottles from the restaurant's staggeringly deep, all-Italian wine list. Desserts are pleasingly indulgent, too – signature rosemary olive oil cakes and creamy coffee caramel tiramisu. Bustling and busy since 2007, this Los Angeles mainstay shows no signs of slowing down.
