toes and a drizzle of Calabrian chili oil. Quiora’s pappardelle, ricotta and chili oil are all made in-house.
There are plenty of other deli- cious pasta options at the eatery. Among them is the Spaghetti Car- bonara (single serving $24, fami- ly style $36). It features a creamy sauce of Parmesan and pecorino with pancetta, topped with a local
poached egg and housemade focac- cia breadcrumbs. Little details matter, where even the spaghetti is crafted
The selection of fish depends on what the culinary team can find at the local fish mar- ket. It often includes snappers like onaga, opakapaka, lehi, kalekale, uku and gindai, along with uhi and uu.
Meat lovers will feel like they’re in heav- en when they taste the Porchetta ($55). This magnificent house-tied meal revolves around a pork belly rolled around a lean pork loin. It is roasted until golden and crisp, and served with salt-roasted potatoes, house-pickled vegetables and salsa verde. Fun facts about Quiora’s Porchetta are that it is left to dry for three days before being roasted, and the pork itself comes from Pono Provisions in Waianae.
Another enticing porcine plate at the eat- ery is the Pork Pappardelle (single serving $24, family style $36). Pappardelle are large, very broad, flat pasta noodles, similar to wide fettuccine, originating from the Tusca- ny region. This dish consists of whey-braised pork, fresh ricotta, Ho Farms cherry toma-
in-house.
The egg in the center of the carbonara
also has a soft yolk that enhances the dish when mixed in while warm. The restaurant team is more than happy to incorporate the egg tableside for guests.
