Italian Feast

About
Charcutier board of meats, olives and cheeses.
You can't beat that old tomato and mozzarella combination, two simple ingredients that make my heart sing, creamy buffalo mozzarella sliced and surrounded by tomatoes with wisps of oregano and lemon.
Dish of mixed olives and balsamic vinegar - you are going to look at this dish and think what can she possibly do to this ingredient that makes it shine above and beyond the olives you can buy in any supermarket across the land and I will sit and watch and silently whisper in your ear the secrets of my magic.
Roasted peppers with olive oil - roasting does something magical to peppers, sprinkled with sea salt you'll be fighting over the last one!
Fungi ripieni - roasted mushrooms stuffed with sourdough and parmesan crumb infused with garlic and rosemary.
Main
Chicken puttanesca - A true Neapolitan dish where the defining component is the marinade which is reduced to a thickness that makes it stick kicking and screaming to the chicken, there will be plenty of this lovely, deep, gutsy sauce to soak up into the crispy, garlic roasted crushed potatoes that we will be serving it with. (Vegan and vegetarian options availble, please let me know when you book)
Pudding
Tiramisu, using strong black coffee and a splash of espresso martini, sponge fingers are soaked as the base, clouds of whipped mascarpone are layered in between and the top sprinkled with a crushed, roasted coffee bean and dark chocolate crumb, the ultimate dish of decadence.
