We're off to Northwest Italy and Liguria - home of the Italian riviera - for our monthly regional dinner next week on Tuesday 27th March.
Pesto - a mix of fresh basil, pine kernels, olive oil, garlic & Parmesan - originates from Liguria and we're serving it with linguini, new season's potatoes and green beans next week. We've got two stuffed pasta dishes - a meaty Ravioli alla Genovese and delicious pansòuti, filled with more fresh herbs, garlic and crushed walnuts.
For mains we're cooking a layered filo tart with spring veg and ricotta plus a traditional braised rabbit dish that comes in a sauce of white wine & fresh capers. Unsurprisingly, seafood plays a major part in Ligurian cuisine and takes centre stage in a wonderful fish stew we're cooking using cod and a variety of new season's vegetables and peppery olive oil.
There's three desserts - shared across your table - our eye's on that Rum cake and apricot jam...
As always the dinner is £28 per person and includes all anti-pasti and desserts to share across your table. You can book in groups of all sizes which includes our large sharing table seating up to 20 people at no extra cost.
Dinner starts from 6pm with bookings available until late. To make a booking please call us on or book using the calendar on our website.
