Italian chef brings delicious Italian cuisine from his hometown 🇮🇹

Gerbino Daniele, the executive chef and owner of the 18-year-old "Moon Italian Restaurant" in Taipei, has worked in famous restaurants in Florence and Milan. Over the years, he has persisted and worked hard to make delicious and authentic Italian cuisine. The reason is very simple, that is, when Taiwanese people travel to Italy, they want to eat very authentic Italian dishes and hometown dishes in Italy, and you can always see and eat them on the menu of Yuezhi Italy👍 - Italian beef carpaccio with Parmesan cheese and olive oil The tender fillet raw beef is paired with Parmesan cheese, lettuce and olive oil. It has a smooth texture and is refreshing with the aroma of raw beef and cheese. - Florentine tripe stew 🥘 There are two types of Italian tripe: Northern Italian and Southern Italian, and they are cooked differently. Northern Italy uses tomato sauce as the base, while southern Italy (Sicily or Naples) stews it with vegetables to bring out the original color of the tripe, and then presents it as a cold dish. The Roman style is based on tomatoes and dried fruits, while the Florentine style uses a tomato sauce base to make a pink sauce and pairs it with Parmesan cheese, and is the most popular among Taiwanese. -Italian style spiced shrimp and mushrooms 🦐 Selected plump and juicy mushrooms, sweet shrimps stir-fried with spices, and served in their own handmade crust, it is a signature appetizer that is enjoyable both visually and taste-wise. -Spinach salad 🥗 Imported spinach, paired with fresh shredded carrots and drizzled with olive oil and vinegar, is a simple and healthy salad dish. The portion of spinach on the whole plate is quite large, and it really feels like I am replenishing my vegetables. -Chef's Stewed Lamb Shank 🍖 The chef's bone-in lamb knee is slowly stewed with red wine to make the meat more tender and melt-in-your-mouth. On the side are vegetables such as stewed carrot cubes, potatoes fried with rosemary, bell peppers, zucchini, etc. It is a really recommended main dish. - Sliced ​​US rib-eye steak with grilled vegetables 🥩 The steak is recommended to be cooked medium rare. It is cut before being served, and is also served with roasted bell peppers, potatoes, diced king oyster mushrooms, and other seasonal vegetables. The steak is natural, without much seasoning except pepper. The overall taste is okay, but it is probably not the restaurant's strong point. - Porcini mushroom bird's nest pasta 🍜 Porcini and bird's nest pasta from Italy are added with a cream base. The bird's nest is a wide pasta with a special chewy texture. It is paired with porcini mushrooms and has a rich aroma. It is a recommended dish. -Italian potato gnocchi with blue cheese sauce 🫓 As a person who likes cheese and potato gnocchi, this is a must-order dish when I come here. The extremely rich blue cheese sauce is full of rich cheese aroma. The potato dumplings are dense and taste good. - Medium-rolled clam and squid ink long noodles 🍝 A friend suggested changing to angel hair pasta, but I honestly think long pasta has a better texture. Because squid ink noodles have a strong taste, salty and spicy, the ingredients include squid and clams. The squid is chewy and full of squid ink. -Italian mixed cheese pizza 🍕 This time I chose the Italian mixed cheese pizza, which is based on homemade tomato sauce, topped with mozzarella and gorgonzola cheese, and served with a crispy baked crust. It was truly delicious. #foodie #italianfood
