Our Ingredients

We order some of our ingredients such as flour, olive oil, pasta, tomatoes, and supplies such as coffee and wine, from Italian suppliers Alivini and Sorrento Express who deliver goods from Italy to the UK.

Our Methods

Our dishes are freshly made. From the pizza base which we knead and create ourselves to the tiramisu dessert where we follow a special recipe handed down in the family, each dish is hand made using finely honed traditional cooking techniques.
