We Got High On Tartufo At Urbani Truffle Bar & Restaurant
Described by 18th century French gourmand Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin as “the diamond of the kitchen”, the not-so-humble truffle takes the culinary spotlight at Urbani at Sathorn Square. The gemstone analogy is apposite. The restaurant opened in June 2018 as a venture between seasoned local restaurateur Roberto Ugolini and the Urbani family, which established its truffle empire in northern Italy in 1852 and today controls approximately 70 per cent of the global market in the coveted fungus, effectively becoming to the truffle what De Beers is to diamonds.
