Customers who wish to have bread with their meal can order some Pane Carasatu - typical Sardinian thin, crispy bread served simply with extra virgin olive oil and a little fresh rosemary. You can also sample this as a starter - Pane frattau - with fresh tomato sauce and Pecorino cheese. Our speciality main courses include fresh sea bass cooked in a sea salt crust, swordfish with Vernaccia wine, wild boar with mirto sauce, which gives a wonderful sweet and sour flavour, and lamb cooked in vegetables with Cannonau., a traditional Sardinian red wine. The
vast majority of the ingredients we use, from the olive oil to the
cheeses and breads, are imported directly from Sardinia. Fresh produce,
like fish and vegetables, are bought daily from the market, and our
blackboard menu changes every day, according to whatever is available. We also have an excellent selection of vegetarian dishes available, and we are happy to cater for people with special dietary requirements, by arrangement.
