			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Cucina Rustica</h1>
<p>Fine Italian food in the very centre of Birmingham is Cucina Rustica&#8217;s trademark, a comfortable, atmospheric Italian restaurant popular with both locals and tourists visiting this vibrant city.</p>
<p>Although modern and slick in its execution, the choice of deep earthy colours and moody lighting, tactile materials such as wood and stone and the addition of characterful contemporary art and healthy, verdant plants give Cucina Rustica that slight traditional feel suggested by its name and a certain cosiness that gives it a home from home feel.</p>
<p>Attention to detail is in every little touch here at Cucina Rustica, from the single rose placed on each table to the complementary olives produced on every guest&#8217;s arrival.</p>
<p>Equally, food is produced with great care, dishes traditionally Italian but done with flair and a certain amount of style, some unusual choices offered alongside classic favourites, all from the classic Italian cookbook and accompanied by a wide array of drinks.</p>
