Ristorante Berton, Milan

We had the white truffle tasting menu. The food was generally wonderful. Very tasty and well presented. However, the dessert course didn't really work with truffles, a post-dessert panettone course seemed more an exercise in marketing (you can buy it here or buy it there) and we were full by the final pastry surprise (having thought the panettone was the last course). Truffles were added in the kitchen and each course included a generous amount (I'd guess over 5g).

The service was very attentive, with many staff members. They were quick and efficient. The only oddity was replacing water bottles before they were empty and replacing half full glasses with differently colored glasses for the dessert courses.

Whether this was good value depends on how much you value white truffles. It certainly seems a restaurant that knows how to prepare and serve fine food. We would return.
