01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Start with a selection of antipasti, then move on to fresh pasta and a main course. Daniel's Alba’s lunch menu makes a good choice when you want to enjoy several courses. Diners who ordered the lunch course report that it includes antipasti, a choice of fresh pasta, a fish or meat main, dessert, and coffee or tea. Another visitor enjoyed a colourful antipasti platter and a lunch portion they found just right.

The restaurant says its fresh pasta is made by hand each day with Kyoto wheat. The lunch pasta set centres on an antipasti platter, the pasta of the day and dolce; for a longer meal, there is also a course that adds a fish or meat dish. One visitor chose a half portion of fresh pasta and remembered the pairing of fine noodles and asparagus.

Pasta choices vary by seafood, meat and sauce. Options include spaghetti with blue crab in tomato cream sauce, chunky beef Bolognese and Gorgonzola cream sauce. Spaghetti with sakura shrimp and fava beans is another tempting choice for anyone in the mood for seafood.

At dinner, you can nibble on antipasti before choosing a main. The assorted antipasti platter is presented as a way to try a little of several popular dishes, while mains include spareribs marinated with herbs and honey and duck confit. The description of the spareribs promises a tender, juicy finish.

To finish, choose Basque cheesecake or tiramisu with gelato, or opt for a platter of assorted dolce to sample a little of several desserts. The restaurant lists both private rooms and counter seating. It is presented as suitable for solo diners as well as groups, with pasta lunches by day and dinners built around antipasti and a main.
