🔥This Week’s Must-Try Italian Specials
Beef Tortellini

Delicate parcels of pasta filled with tender beef, bathed in a silky cream and ham sauce. Finished with shallots, oregano, and just the right touch of parmesan, this dish is indulgence at its finest.
Every bite melts in your mouth, offering a perfect balance of richness and warmth.
Radicchio Risotto

A celebration of texture and taste, with the bitterness of radicchio balanced by sweet caramelized onion purée and the crunch of toasted pine nuts. Add grilled chicken for extra heartiness, or enjoy it as-is-it’s vegetarian-friendly and unforgettable.
It’s the kind of dish that comforts and surprises with every spoonful.
Wild Barramundi

Our hero from the sea. Expertly cooked, laid on creamy parmesan mash, paired with caramelized fennel and a zesty salsa verde that brings it all to life.
A beautifully balanced plate where freshness meets finesse.
