We are very happy that our customers who dine in the Salumeria with us enjoy leaving the chef to create a daily no choice menu. We get fantastic feedback and it is great to have such fiercely loyal clients who return again and again as the idea of turning up to a booked table while not knowing what’s for dinner is not to everyone’s taste (no pun!). The menu is generally very simple with the emphasis on good products, cooked well so 3 antipastini are followed by a plate of pasta then perhaps some meat or poultry cooked low and slow, the meal ending with a sweet thing.
In October we are trying an experiment where we shall endeavour to source all the ingredients within the Leeds postcode area for our Cenare dinners. There are a few obstacles to consider, the big one being the pasta, but we shall overcome!
Swillington Organic Farm raise livestock, produce honey and preserves and grow fruit, herbs and vegetables on 160 acres; everything here is naturally reared and organic. Our aim is to cook dinner on the week of 14th October using produce from the farm though we will be using some Italian condiments along the way.
