Italy takes on a New York accent at Alfi’s.
Italy, New York, the Basque Country, Argentina: from Rue du Mont-Thabor, Jonathan Morales takes the trattoria on a journey, letting pasta travel without a passport.
A stone’s throw from the Tuileries, Alfi’s could easily be just another Italian trattoria. Except here, the pasta has clearly traveled far and wide.
At 26 rue du Mont-Thabor, chef Jonathan Morales uses Italian terroirs as a springboard to dialogue with his own roots: New York, France, the Basque Country, and Argentina. The cuisine is deliberately generous and convivial, crafted from carefully sourced local ingredients, where Italian classics serve more as a departure point than a rulebook.
A plate might begin in Italy, gather something in Buenos Aires, pass through New York, and find its home on rue du Mont-Thabor…
