The menu consists of a few dishes, all balanced and made with care by our chef, who always puts his special ingredient: the love for this job.
Appetizers, first courses, main courses and desserts: here you will find our entire organic selection.
Appetizers
Chickpea patties with tzatziki our way
Crispy and creamy, chickpea patties are a delicious and nutritious appetizer.
What makes them truly unique? The tzatziki our way, enriched with mint that gives it an extra touch of freshness. We find them to be delicious, how about you try them too?
Panzanella crock
Contemporary panzanella?
The great classics are untouchable and we treat them with great respect.
But this crispy panzanella has nothing on the classic version. Feel it crunching under your teeth already? Come taste it.
Crunchy goat cheese lollipop on blushing eggplant
How to turn goat cheese into a lollipop that makes crunch?
Our chef’s creativity took care of that, and to enhance these creamy orbs, he decided to accompany them with a truly delicious blushed eggplant sauce.
Fresh Gazpacho with puffed millet
To eat a Gazpacho that will remain in your heart, you don’t need to go all the way to Spain.
We enriched this cold soup with puffed millet.
Bursting in the mouth, from every point of view.
First courses
Tagliatelle with basil and confit dates
When you say tomato and basil, hunger comes in an instant!
A dish like this could not be missing from our menu, but neither could our touch to personalize it.
The basil is in the pasta and the tomato is caramelized in the oven. Need to add more?
Senatore Cappelli durum wheat spaghetti with arugula and olive pesto
Arugula, bitter and pungent, is the base of the pesto that accompanies Senatore Cappelli spaghetti.
The first course with an unmistakable taste, for those who love strong flavors.
Cappellacci ricotta and herbs on celery splash and parmesan crumble
Fresh pasta, herbs, celery and parmesan cheese. What’s boiling in the pot?
We made wonderful cappellacci, topped with a fresh and delicate celery sauce. Shall we add a place at the table for you too?
Main courses
Simply burger of red lentils and beet with vegan spirulina mayonnaise by Severino Becagli, veg barbeque sauce and sweet & sour carrots
Fancy a burger that’s not quite a burger?
The Simply burger made with red lentils and beets is a complete dish, fun and suitable both for a quick lunch break and for a dinner different from the usual.
The veg spirulina mayonnaise? worth a try!
Crispy yolk with potatoes, peperonata and egg white waves
How do you make a yolk that’s crispy on the outside and liquid on the inside?
We asked our chef, who answered with an incredible dish.
Its only flaw? That it runs out at some point.
Freaky pinzimonio
If we included it among the main courses, there’s a reason.
This pinzimonio has a whole new look, with cooked rather than raw vegetables and a sauce to “puke” that we find difficult to describe. Where words can’t reach, better to eat.
Salads
Day by day from the chef’s garden
Our salads are a fresh, healthy and appetizing alternative to the usual sandwich or slice of pizza.
Every day, depending on the availability of the garden, our chef offers different versions and combinations.
Desserts
Prosecco kanten balls with red berries and vegan cream
End the meal with prosecco? Yes, but to eat!
Kanten Balls are a creative dessert that expresses the constant desire to experiment with new recipes.
Peach, amaretto and ricotta cream coulis
Panna cotta is a somewhat dated dessert, but still very much in vogue.
So what did we think? To give it that contemporary touch by adding ricotta, amaretto and a coulis of fresh peaches. Soft and crunchy at the same time.
Today cake
Today’s cake, yes, but which one?
The chef’s imagination has no limits and every day our cakes change, so as not to ever get bored.
Intingimi selection
Are you in the mood for dessert?
For our homemade cookies, even vegan, there is always room.

Why organic food
What does it mean to make an organic choice?
Eating meals outside the home is becoming an increasingly frequent habit among people.
The desire for leisure and the frenetic pace are just some of the reasons that drive people to do so. But how important is awareness of what you eat?
ORA’s philosophy is simple and oriented towards sustainability and respect for the environment, people and animals.
The use of organic raw materials produced without pesticides or synthetic additives is for us a due act, both for our health and for that of our territory.
We are increasingly convinced that this is the model to follow, both inside and outside the home, and not only for those of us who have chosen a diet free of meat or fish.
ORA is not only a restaurant where you can eat different dishes cooked with love, drink selected and refined wines, both organic and natural, or meet with friends for an aperitif, but a real model of life, an open space where to promote values and principles to be spread with more and more strength.
