Diver Scallops with Foie Gras and truffle Risotto at Veranda E.

BY May 16, 2013

Naples' top new romantic dining spot is Verande E's secluded courtyard garden hideaway in the Hotel Escalante. And Chef Michael Kang is up to the task of creating food worthy of the setting. Feast on succulent seared diver scallops with a generous portion of Hudson Valley foie gras, with reduced Port wine and truffle sauce. Listen to the relaxing fountains as you sample the luxuriously smooth risotto's classic Carnaroli rice laced with wild mushrooms, truffles, organic English peas, minced shallots and fresh thyme. 290 Fifth Ave. S., Naples, 659-3466, hotelescalante.com.
