Gastown—(March 31, 2022) Di Beppe Restaurant's fourth annual Festa della Polenta seasonal feature menu—described as "a centuries-old Tuscan tradition [and] long-standing celebration that remains today"—has returned for diners to enjoy the Northern Italian culinary staple of a porridge-like boiled cornmeal ingredient made from other grains in a variety of specialty dishes.
spuntini: trio di polenta fritta (with chestnut flour, fioretto, and fumetto)
Polenta Fest celebrates and honours a time when members of the nobility offered polenta to hungry townspeople as famine swept through the region.
apertivo: Martini Riserva Speciale Ambrato Vermouth di Torino
The festival has become a time-honoured event that continues in towns and cities across Italy even to this day as it helps bring friends and families dining together around the table.
antipasti: polenta croccante (with chicken liver pâté and pickled vegetables)
Many of Di Beppe's hearty dishes aim to showcase the full versatility of polenta as an ingredient with the Tuscan flavours of spring highlighted front and centre.
digestivo: La Vialla Occhio di Pernice Vin Santo (Sangiovese)
Kitchen Table's Festa della Polenta menu is available throughout the month of April in both prix-fixe and à la carte options—capping off with a signature multi-course finale dinner on May 1st. Enjoy and think of Tuscany.
