Nestled in Edinburgh's Leith Walk La Favorita is a log-fired pizza and gourmet pasta restaurant with a cracking Italian wine list. Starters include various bruschettas including Bruchetta Tartufata, topped with wild mushrooms and melted taleggio cheese drizzled with truffle oil. Mains include Girello Di Mozzarella, a "Swiss roll" dish of fresh mozzarella filled with parma ham and pesto and Arancini di Riso alla Siciliana, rice balls filled with mincemeat and mozzarella. Their gourmet pasta and risotto selection includes the wild boar Pappardelle alla boscaiola and Risotto Imperiale of champagne stock, prawns, langoustine, smoked salmon and caviar. La Favorita's pizza menu includes a gluten free version of its two dozen pizzas, small wonder it won the Pizza and Pasta Association Pizza Restaurant of the Year in 2007.
