The black stuff on top is shaved black truffle. Our server brought out the truffle from a nice presentation box and proceeded to shave it at the table. According to him, these truffles were purchased in February. In any case, they provided a nice, rich pungent flavor to the gnocchi. I wasn't a huge fan of truffle the first time I had it, but I think I'm beginning to really like it! I suppose it's a bit of an acquired taste.
