As the name suggests, mozzarella is the main star at this homely restaurant in Duxton Hill. Twice a week, fresh mozzarella and burrata are flown in from Puglia in Southern Italy to create dishes like the soft burratina with parma ham ($32), and burratina al tartufo ($34) with roasted pumpkin and shaved winter truffle.
If cheese and pasta are your dream team, Latteria’s handmade pasta is a treat, crafted from Italian 00 flour and semolina. Highlights include ziti all ragù Genovese ($32), a must-try from Naples that offers a lighter twist on the classic ragu, and spaghettini al granchio ($36) featuring perfectly springy noodles, lemony crab bits, and a subtle heat from chilli flakes. For dessert, it’s all about Italian comfort with the mascarpone-laden tiramisu ($17) and the tangy-sweet crostata ai frutti di bosco ($15).
