"The Costa Smeralda in northeastern Sardinia is an oligarch’s playground, as famous for mediocre, overpriced food as it is for white sand beaches. Somu stands out in a sea of uselessly contemporary tourist traps. Chef Salvatore Camedda leverages modern techniques to capture the essence of local flavors in dishes like risotto with sweet and sour peppers, amaretto butter, and horseradish, or roasted turbot with spring onions, beer, and bitter greens. Every meal comes with an emerald green sea view." - Katie Parla
