Italian Street Food Cooking Class | Thurs Jul 23

Hands on Class & Sit-Down Meal

About this experience

With origins dating back to the Romans, street food is one of Italy's oldest - and most loved - ways of eating! Long before today's fancy Michelin star restaurants, there were street vendors in cities all over the country who created many of today's most iconic Italian dishes - Neapolitan pizza, Sicilian arancini and Roman porchetta to name just a few!

More than just a delicious snack, these dishes often played an important part in local history and are as diverse as the cuisine of Italy itself. 

Join us for a fun, informative, hands-on class where we'll make some of our favourite Italian street foods together and learn more about the fascinating history of these dishes!  

MENU 

Frittelle - Two types of southern style Italian fritter: zucchini and mint + potato & cod 

Bombette – Pugliese “little bombs," specialty of Martina Franca: thin slices of grilled pork fillet, stuffed with pancetta, Caciocavallo and herbs 

Arrosticini (Spiedini) – Prepared from scratch, Abruzzese grilled lamb skewers  

Mozzarella in carrozza – Naples’ answer to "grilled cheese": breaded and fried mozzarella sandwiches, with optional anchovies or salami  

Insalata mista – To refresh your palate and help you digest (so you’re ready for dessert) – a fresh salad of mixed greens from Enzo’s garden  

Brioche con sorbetto - Our favourite Sicilian breakfast! Homemade lemon or strawberry gelato on a freshly baked brioche bun
