Mains

Made from a ‘mother dough’ starter and slow-proved for 24 hours, our bakers wood-fire each ready-to-top sourdough base at 400C on lava stone from Mount Etna. In that intense heat, the crusts rise, blister and char in authentic pizzeria fashion. 

It’s ready-topped with our deliciously simple tomato sauce — made with tomatoes handpicked for their perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, the perfect base for a scattering of truly Italian ingredients.

A true taste of Southern Italy

Big and bold flavours are at the forefront of this pizza recipe. Creamy mozzarella tempers the saltiness of anchovy fillets, while a scattering of capers and fruity black olives ensure each delicious mouthful is filled with flavour.

A final sprinkling of fresh oregano leaves tie the southern Italian flavours of this pizza together into dish that wouldn't look out of place on a pizzeria menu.
