ABOUT THEEXPERIENCE

Seeing as how Matteo's paternal family are Pugliese, we present to those in Rome who may not get the chance to travel to the heel of Italy's "boot", an offer to dine with us as we cook some of our favourite Pugliese dishes. We like to add our own modern touch to tradition, so expect regional specialties using ingredients bought from our travels to Puglia; homemade puccie bread paired with jams for antipasti, artisanal cinnamon taralli with dark chocolate dip for dessert...served with Negroamaro wine bought directly from the cantina.

ABOUT THEMENU

Here's a sample menu. We are open to making changes based on your dietary preferences so let us know in advance if you have any!

Antipasti -
Homemade mini puccie (olive and spicy kinds) with tomato and onion jams

Primi:
Orecchiette con cime di rape - a typical pugliese pasta dish with broccoli rabe

Riso con patate e cozze - Italian arborio rice with potatoes and mussels, ovenbaked

Dolci (desserts):
Taralli alla canella con cioccolato fondente fuso - our cheeky take on churros, using artisanal cinnamon taralli bought from our recent trip in Puglia, served with our own dark chocolate dip

Mini pasticciotti - A dessert from Galatina, little tarts of toothsome shortcrust pastry encasing vanilla custard.
