Transport yourself to Italy this Christmas!

One of the most popular Italian restaurants have released a sneak preview of their brand new Christmas menu and we want EVERYTHING!

Piccolino will transport you to to the warmth of Italy this Christmas with their Antipasti starters, flavoursome mains and delicate desserts!

To start, dig into the Antipasti Di Terra E Montagna which contains your favourite Italian meats/hams paired with a delicious selection of cheese’s, truffle honey, fruits and pickles.

After your taste buds have got a small sample of this amazing Italian food, they are bound to want more! So, satisfy your cravings and dive into one of their mains (or get all of them).

Some of their preview dishes include Rigatoni Con Melanzane- Pasta with Aubergine, tomato, ‘Nduja sausage, basil and ricotta salata.

Insalata Bresaola Pere- A traditional Italian salad with Bresaola, pear, walnuts, rocket and Grana Padano (Parmesan).

For all the Pizza and fish lovers out there, this is the dish for you…Pizza Marinara- Traditional Italian hand stretched pizza, topped with Tomato, Capers, Anchovies, Leccino olives and oregano.

Finally, if you like your Christmas meal a little less Italian and a bit more traditional then tuck into Tacchino Arrosto- Roast turkey, chestnut stuffing, butternut squash, button mushrooms and pancetta.

To wash this down with they have a great selection of Italian wines and cocktails. Then after a little wine break, you can cleanse your palate with a dessert from their seasonally inspired menu. Our favourite is the Torte de Polenta cake, served with some of their creamy ice cream.
