Developing their theme of ‘quality, simplicity, passion and teamwork’, Alessandro Pavoni and Fraser Guthrie have attracted glowing reviews from professional foodies and those who simply love good food presented in the best possible surroundings.
Ormeggio is the Italian word for ‘mooring’ and describes the location of the restaurant – as if you were sitting on a mooring in a boat, but without the rocking! Just perfect for our Australian climate. And a real treat being able to enjoy such excellent Italian-inspired food in our own surroundings.
Alessandro’s signature dish is risotto, but he is increasingly becoming known for his game meats which are typical of his Northern Italian heritage. Neither too heavy nor too light, his meals are extremely tasty and satisfying.
Experience a sunset at Ormeggio, with a glass of Italian wine in hand, and you’ll want to make this your second home.
