Nishinomiya, Hyogo, Japan｜vecchia spugna

Had a very intimate dining experience at acero recently whilst visiting friends who live in the area. The restaurant is small but supple for the food offered on the menu. The food is Italian cuisine and each dish was executed to a very high standard. Based on my understanding, the dishes are derived from ingredients local to the area and region and each dish is best ordered to share. The oysters, steak and squid ink pasta was a standout for us. The restaurant is very local and the restaurant staff have very limited English (not to worry if you have Google translate). Would definitely recommend this restaurant if you are in the area!

When I lived in Kurakuen, I used to go there often, A safe shop that I still go to occasionally. Chef S is independent from a famous Italian restaurant. A simple personality with a sense of distance is just right. The taste will never go away no matter what you eat. By the way, the dessert Mont Blanc is the best in the world

The staff was friendly and the food was delicious no matter what I chose from the menu. Delicious vegetables that change with the seasons are also attractive. When you go, be sure to ask for the recommended pasta! I'm always intrigued by the smell of cutlets, so I'd like to order it next time.
