Inspired by the charming southern Italian town of Venosa and nonna's recipe book, this eatery celebrates Italian flavours in all their tomatoey, saucy, herby glory. Complete with a wine cellar worth writing home about...

This intimate bistro is a happy mix of rustic furnishings, quirky memorabilia, gleaming wine bottles and an exposed kitchen that reveals a flambé spectacle every so often.

Food this good is not meant to be rushed. That's why we encourage you to indulge in some cocktail meatballs, Italian antipasti or the daily bruschetta to go alongside your pre-dinner vino. Move on to a velvety red to pair with the Italian sausage pasta, the most tender slow-cooked pork ragu or the eternally decadent steak tagliata which quite simply melts in the mouth.

When it comes to wine, simply ask your hosts about their recommended pairings and they will ensure your supper is an unforgettable one.
