F.A.W.C! Il Pirata goes F.A.W.C! Modern Italian

What’s not to love about Italian cuisine? Pasta, cheese, fish…it offers us some of life’s greatest pleasures.

The brilliant team at Il Pirata are bringing out the big guns and putting their spin on modern Italian. They will be putting together an insanely good 4-course set menu and matching it with Italian and New Zealand wine at F.G Smiths. They will be showcasing a wine list of modern Italian wines from across Italy as well as traditional Italian varieties produced here in New Zealand.

Bring a group to the event, eat, drink and share the experience, meet new friends as everyone will sit at large tables and the food will be served in a family style. Buon appetito!

Tickets are $70 for a set 4-course modern Italian menu. Matched Italian and New Zealand styled wines is additional.
