On August 28th, ORO takes you deep into the rugged toe of Italy’s boot, a land framed by two seas, where the cuisine of CALABRIA carries the warmth of the Mediterranean sun.
Known for its sun-soaked produce, celebrated cured meats, and fearless use of spice, Calabrian cuisine captures the soul of southern Italy with bold, unforgettable flavours.
ORO’s Taste of Italia: Calabria menu features:
Calabrian Charcuterie Board
Made to share, with dry-cured soppressata and capicola, smoked provola, marinated artichokes, olives, pepperoncini, house-made focaccia, and fermented honey
Involtini di Pollo
Chicken breast rolled with spinach, herbs, Parmigiano Reggiano, sundried tomatoes, and pine nuts, wrapped in prosciutto, and served with lemon white wine sauce, sautéed mushrooms, and fresh greens. (Contain pine nuts)
Fileja Alla Tropeana
Handmade Fileja pasta with tender zucchini, sweet cherry tomatoes, roasted eggplant, and caramelized heirloom onions, finished with Parmigiano Reggiano
Dessert
A chef-crafted, Calabrian-inspired flavour of L’OCA gelato
