This Thursday, we’re taking you on a journey across Italy.

From a traditional Napoletana frittatina paired with Lambrusco di Sorbara, to handmade tortellini in brodo, hemp-fed beef cheek cooked over fire, and a classic Migliaccio Napoletano to finish.

Each course is matched with wines personally selected by Alex from Alessa Vino, showcasing small producers and regional Italian varieties that tell a story in every glass.

An evening of food, wine, tradition and fire.

Some nights don’t need complicated.

Just good produce, good ingredients, and food made to be shared around the table.

Today Alex walked through the butcher selecting a few of our favourites for easy cooking at home beautiful chicken, thick pork cutlets, pork shoulder ready for slow cooking, fresh pasta, and our house-made bolognese sauce prepared by Nico.

Everything we make is designed for real life.
Food with flavour, without the stress.

Our pork shoulder paired with the butcher’s spice blend is made for slow Sundays.
The pork cutlets are perfect straight on the grill or pan with a spoon of our smoked butter melting over the top.

Fresh pasta and bolognese for the nights you want comfort food without spending hours in the kitchen.

And the small things matter too.
