Negroni Week at Matteo Downtown

The CBD restaurant is serving up a quirky cocktail list — with parmesan and negroni-filled ice spheres — for one week.

Overview

Matteo Downtown will bring negroni week's namesake cocktail back to its Italian roots. To start, the CBD restaurant is slinging some seriously unusual takes on negroni, including the signature Double Negroni, which combines two cocktails in one. It's a white negroni (that's gin, French vermouth and Cocchi Americano), topped with a negroni-injected ice sphere that slowly melts into cocktail round two.

The menu also features a parmesan version — it's washed with Sicilian green olives and the rim is garnished with a parmesan crust and basil dust. All of the negronisare $15 during the venue's weekday aperitivo hour from 4–6pm, and will be served with free Italian-style bar snacks, created by head chef Chef Orazio.

The entire negroni menu is available from June 3–28, with proceeds going toward the Fondazione Telethon, an Italian charity that aids children with a rare-immunodeficiency called ADA-SCID.
