Ferraro's Ristorante Announces White Truffle Dinner

Ferraro’s Ristorante invites guests to an exclusive five-course white truffle dinner on Saturday, Nov. 12 at 6:30 p.m. The lavish dinner will feature exquisite wine pairings and one of the season’s most indulgent ingredients – Italian white truffles.

Italian white truffles are widely regarded as the most distinctive of all truffles, and their season runs typically from late October to late December. Truffles grow in the wild, where they enjoy a symbiotic relationship with mature oak, beech and hazelnut trees, from which they draw carbohydrates while growing underground. For this reason, truffles cannot be cultivated. That fact, together with their unmistakably rich and umami-filled flavor, makes truffles a universally rare and sought-after ingredient.
