Mezzaluna – New York – USA
When Mezzaluna burst upon the Manhattan restaurant scene in 1984, even the most jaded New Yorkers fell in love with the kind of place which they had only known while traveling in Italy. The excitement of Italian high style met with a new kind of menu: the highest quality ingredients and seasonal produce were combined into simple, yet sophisticated pastas, pizzas and appetizers. No effort was spared to create an authentic Italian trattoria: everything was brought from Italy, from the floor tiles by Cotto of Impruneta (also found in Brunelleschi’s dome and the cathedral in Florence), to the marble-topped tables, the chairs by Castiglione, china by Ginori, and flatware by Alessi and glassware by Bormioli.
