There are so much goodness in the one place, it can’t possibly be real. Oh but it is my chums! I will say very little, but let the food speaks for themselves…

Entrée 

  
Salumi Board, fill it with whatever your heart desire, here we got Mortadella, Mornello 18mths Prosciutto and Mozzarella di Bufala. That crispy flat bread tho, so good!

  

Special entrée of the day, salmon with orange and salad

 

Montanara Classica, deep fried pizza dough topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella and basil leave. This is too good and a must try

 

Calamari Fritti, classic and served with such a good aioli

Main 

  

Bella Emilia, prosciutto, sundried tomatoes and balsamic vinegar goodness

  

Salsiccia e friarielli, pork sausages on pizza why not?

  

Margherita verace, classic tomato sauce, basil and mozzarella 

 

Linguine alle vongole, only ever had this in Venice, but this version is also delicious. The clear garlic sauce is too good!

  

Risotto alla milanese, saffron risotto with pork sausages, subtle flavouring from the saffron and a super cheesy risotto

Desserts

  

Panna cotta del giorno, vanilla panna cotta with berries. Very light and delicious

  

Tiramisu, mild coffee flavours, tasted more chocolate especially with the crunchy choc topping

 

Dark Chocolate Semifreddo, really rich chocolate flavour but the biscuit bottom is so good!

Definitely a must visit whenever you’re in Melbourne, the staffs are so informative and helpful with explaining the menu. They’ll probably confused you with more delicious sounding food and you’ll end up wanting everything. There are so many to choose from, the menu is quite overwhelming but haven’t disappoint so far.
