What we ate!
Homemade creamy Walnut Sauce with chestnut Mushrooms (Casarecce Pasta) – This plate was exactly how it sounds, the creamy sauce made it so flavoursome along with the chestnut mushrooms was definitely one of my favourites!
Homemade Parmesan, Pecorino and Basil (Casarecce Pasta) – The colour of this dish really respresents the freshness within. The traditional homemade pesto is made with heavenly layers of Parmigiano-regianno!
4 hour slow cooked bechamel bolognese with grated parmesan (Papardalle Pasta) – This dish is a classic! You could really appreciate the time which has gone into the sauce as it really differs from any other Bolognese I have ever had!
