Panzanella
One of the best-known Tuscan dishes, this luscious tomato and bread salad tastes like summer. Fresa (toasted Italian bread) soaks up the juices from ripe beefsteak tomatoes, together with cucumber, red onion, oregano, basil, and organic Calabrian extra virgin olive oil from Chef Luciano’s family farm, where the olives are stil hand picked in the traditional way.
Involtini di Melanzane
A supremely elegant and light summer dish; slices of Italian eggplant rolled over mozzarella and prosciutto crudo, cooked in light fresh tomato sauce with fresh basil and thyme.
Also available vegetarian, without prosciutto.
Risotto Funghi Rosmarino
Italian Carnaroli rice with fresh Ontario mushrooms, infused with fresh rosemary and finished with butter and Parmigiano Reggiano.
Budino al Limone
A refreshing summery lemon pudding; eggs and almond milk lighten the classic custard, and fresh lemon juice and zest highlight the tart flavour.
