Fodor's Review:

At this haute-cuisine vegetarian restaurant near Piazza della Repubblica, delicious dishes are artistically prepared by chef Pietro Leemann. The ever-changing menu offers dishes such as ravioli with basil, potatoes, pine nuts, and crisp green beans. (Fish also makes an appearance.) The dishes all have creative names, such as the onomatopoeic soup called "blub." In the depths of this thick mushroom-and-asparagus soup is an air bubble that makes a distinctive sound when it comes to the surface. Multicourse menus range from EUR 55 to EUR 95, excluding wine.
