How the meal works
Courses, Not a Rushed Plate
During dinner, each guest chooses one antipasto, one pasta tasting, one secondi tasting, and one contorno. The table also shares House Italian Flatbread and salad, then finishes with included lemon sorbet. Specialty flatbread enhancements and specialty dolce add-ons may also be available.
Course Guide

Un Po’ di Tutto

House Italian Flatbread
A thin, rectangular Italian-style flatbread, lightly baked and finished with extra-virgin olive oil and our house seasoning. This is closer to the quick flatbreads Italian families might keep on hand for an easy midday meal or flatbread-style pizza — not a thick, bread-heavy focaccia.
