Menù di terra
Embark on a delicious journey through Sicilian flavors at 12 Fontane, located in the heart of Linguaglossa. This menu celebrates local tradition with a contemporary twist, featuring carefully crafted dishes that highlight the best of Sicily’s culinary heritage.
Starters
Begin your meal with the elegant Benvenuto 12 Fontane, a welcoming gesture from the kitchen. Delight in the Prosciutto di maialino da latte e mela dell’Etna, where tender suckling pig ham pairs exquisitely with crisp Etna apples — an ode to local ingredients. For a lighter option, the Assoluto di zucchina offers a refined zucchini creation, showcasing the vegetable’s fresh and delicate notes.
Mains
Savor the rich flavors of the Riso Carnaroli acquerello, infused with Nerello Mascalese wine, creamy yogurt, and toasted walnuts — a harmonious blend that balances creaminess and earthiness. The Fusilloni di Gragnano, paired with roasted pepper, smoked ricotta, and a zesty lemon accent, offers a vibrant and textured pasta experience. For meat lovers, the Coniglio porchettato is a standout: succulent porchetta-style rabbit enhanced by the aromatic depth of Sicilian truffle and a piquant caper sauce that elevates every bite.
Desserts
Conclude with the delicate Mandorla, cioccolato avorio e limone, a dessert that perfectly marries almond, ivory chocolate, and lemon for a refreshing yet indulgent finish. Alternatively, enjoy a selection from the Piccola pasticceria, a curated assortment of petite sweets that provide the ideal sweet note to end your Sicilian culinary adventure.
Drinks and Specials
Complement your meal with a thoughtfully selected wine list that highlights regional gems, including the house rosé crafted from Nerello Mascalese grapes, praised for its light red fruit notes and balanced acidity. The restaurant also offers expertly mixed cocktails and a variety of coffees to round off your dining experience.
