Ingredient appreciation — what makes Osso Buco special

What sets Osso Buco apart is the handling of aged balsamic. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the deeply savory result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

ingredient simplicity and quality are the guiding principles. The a Sunday ragu lunch atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had Chianti as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Osso Buco is the place to start.
