Organized Chaos
Fall Harvest

Risposta simply means “Response”. That is to respond to the food, the elements, and the evolving landscape around us.
A cook book encompassing the variety of dish prepared and served.

"Throughout these pages it is clear how Risposta Bistro exudes culinary dedication and passionate commitment to sustainability, locality, and honoring the earth's bounty"

— Alinea, Chicago, Grant Achatz, Chef & Co-Owner, Three MICHELIN Stars

Risposta Ristorante —
It took us eight years to get to this point.

Writing a book has always been something that we wanted to do. We had talked over the years about doing a cocktail book first, but we never found the right time. So it's safe to say this book comes after a long haul. We have met so many incredible people, from our guests to the staff. Each day has been a learning experience and a chance for us as a team and restaurant to grow. It has all been part of the journey.
So, this is the response eight years in. Our restaurant focuses on modern, sustainable cooking using Italian techniques with a strong emphasis on respecting the ingredients. We build our plates with taste, presentation, and creativity. We would be lying if we told you this is easy. Of course, these words can roll off the tongue with ease. No one said running a restaurant is easy. If they did, then we would love to meet them. Lucky for us, we had a lot of great hands along the way. We must be very clear; this is a total team effort.
We will continue to strive to exceed our guest expectations and create a warm and inviting environment.

"The deepest lessons in life are learned on a path of action, from fearlessly plunging your hands into the soil to see what you can learn. At Riposta Bistro, you can taste the spectacular results, the synergies, ,ff(e learning, the authentic flavours so masterfully shared in this authentic book."

— Chef Michael Smith, CM Author, Food Network Host
