Osteria Gia proudly introduces its very first monthly special menu in Surabaya
After winning the hearts of food lovers in Jakarta, Osteria GIA continues its culinary journey by bringing a more personal and emotional experience to its guests in Surabaya. This special menu features four meaningful dishes inspired by the childhood memories of Chef Tommaso Gonfiantini, each reflecting the warmth of family traditions, culinary heritage, and nostalgic stories from his early years in Italy.
Rather than simply offering new dishes, this menu invites diners to explore a heartfelt journey through the eyes of the chef himself. Each creation has a unique story, whether it’s a memory of summer holidays by the seaside, a family Sunday lunch, or the first time a young Tommaso discovered his love for crispy textures and bold ingredients.
With a deep respect for authenticity and thoughtful presentation, the dishes are crafted to bring comfort and inspiration. From a golden croquette that brings back childhood flavors to a slow-cooked wagyu dish passed down from his grandmother, every bite captures a moment from Chef Tommaso’s past. Guests can also savor the bold, briny notes of squid ink risotto or enjoy a light yet flavorful scallop pasta, reminiscent of Italian coastal summers.
More than just food, Chef Tommaso’s Famiglia Recipe celebrates the emotions, stories, and connections that make every family meal special. It reflects Osteria GIA’s mission to go beyond taste and offer a more intimate, human dining experience one that is close to the heart. Known for its stylish ambiance, heartfelt service, and dedication to real Italian cooking, Osteria GIA has become a go-to destination for Italian cuisine lovers. This seasonal menu is now available exclusively at Osteria GIA Surabaya, as well as all Osteria GIA locations in Jakarta.
