Perfect restaurant to grab some Italian small plates!

A rainy evening at Liverpool, wandering around to find a dinner place and walked into Bacaro. Service was good and attentive, my server did a good job explaining the highlights of the broad menu and yes I was by myself and had 4 dishes, but since the portion was not very big I'm glad I actually got the chance to try out all those wonderful food.

Roasted Tomatoes, Mozzarella and Fresh Basil Pizza: A
It tasted just like the name of this dish, the roasted tomatoes added extra grilling taste to the pizza, the dough was perfectly made, lots of mozzarella and bail used in this rather small personal pizza.
Roasted Cod: A
It's my first time trying creamed mash mixing with egg yolk, the slimy texture was very interesting. Cod was perfectly prepared. But overall it was really the egg yolk that added the delightfulness to the dish.
Braised Ox Cheek: A
It's kind of gamey which I actually enjoy a lot. It was perfectly cooked, very tender and temperature was very even across the whole piece. The sauce was really interesting, I tried to figure out what it was but still couldn't, there was some truffle and bone marrow flavor to it, and with the creamy mushroom.... perfect.
Risotto: A-
Perfectly made from texture standpoint, the whole dish was slightly salty but the asparagus added hint of freshness. Lots of flavor on the palate, the snow peas added another layer of texture to the sticky risotto.
Overall I enjoyed every dish that evening. Glad that I found such a wonderful place in Liverpool.
