We Love Food & Wine
Our driving force, our way of life
We have lived and breathed the CUCINA ITALIANA, the real one, since the 1980s in Milan. A heritage that stretches back through generations, where professional and family lives have evolved together.
Our true passion lies in the ingredients we use – without a great product you can’t create a great dish! We treasure relationships with Italian Artisan food makers, paramount in finding the most genuine products; ingredients that represent our homeland, our culture and the BUONGUSTO that gives Italy its unique identity… From our inherited family recipes to the specialty ingredients we bring straight from our motherland, we hold on to the values that made us.
ALLERGENS: Due to the use in our kitchen of most allergens, our dishes may contain traces of such ingredients. Please make sure to notify our managers if you suffer from allergies. All cheese on our menu is deemed as vegetarian if your diet requires the absence of rennet enzymes also, please ask us for guidance.
