Description:

Dinner for two. Expires November 30, 2012.

If there ever were an ideal dining spot for the international jet setter, BiCE would be it. Since the first location opened in Milan in 1926, dozens have sprouted up all over the globe, from Montreal to Dubai. The Manhattan arm occupies an understated yet opulent midtown space, where  Northern Italian meals—like the osso bucco with porcini mushrooms and parmesan risotto, or the tagliolini with supple lobster meat and a hearty wild mushrooms and tomato sauce—are served with aplomb by the meticulous staff. Since pastas here are made fresh daily, you’ll never have to wonder if i primi piatti have logged more time on the airplane than you have., New York Magazine

The network of Bice restaurants spanning the world today began in 1926 in Milan. Beatrice Ruggeri - Bice to her family and friends - was known for her extraordinary hospitality and personal warmth. For years she was encouraged to open her cucina to the public. In 1926 she agreed, albeit reluctantly, and a neighborhood trattoria - loosely translated, a friendly gathering place - was opened. With Bice in the kitchen and her brothers and sisters serving in the dining room, il Ristorante Da Gino e Bice, or Bice as it would later be known, had a family feeling. The first customers said it was like being at the home of a friend, as Bice hoped they would. Bice Ruggeri was now a recognized Milanese restaurateur. And her sons, Remo and Roberto, were taking steps to extend her vision throughout the world.
