Locanda is a casual Italian concept by the tried and trusted one-Michelin-starred Buona Terra. The space is kept warm and homely to mimic a cosy inn in the Italian countryside, swapping out the starched-white tablecloths at Buona Terra for dark wooden tables and exposed brick walls. Those who have a preference for classic Italian home cooking over modern reinterpretations will appreciate the menu here, curated by Buona Terra’s Italian Resident Chef Denis Lucchi and his team. The Bruscaccia ($18) spotlights Chef Denis’ signature onion focaccia made of stone-milled Italian wheat and slow-cooked red Tropea onions. But the pasta menu is probably what everyone is looking forward to, with dishes like the taglioni with fresh tomato, crab and lemon ($28), or Locanda’s mezze maniche pasta coated with a traditional Amatriciana sauce ($22).
