When the outdoor oven opens to reveal those fabulous italian ribs you know you're in for a good night!!! Wonderful, generous hosts - I'd recommend spending time with Julie, Tony, Rob and Serena anywhere.

For many years I have been in the fortunate position to have known Serena Vecchiet as a fabulous cook. I can vouch that from the simplest of pasta dishes to the most elaborate of three course meals; no dish goes without love nor flavour. The same can be said for the food Serena presents when catering for large parties. Her cakes and desserts are never short of mouth-watering and her savoury dishes combine tradition and adventure, never failing to bring out the romance of Italian cuisine. Awed by her home made antipasto, I asked if she would share with me her secrets and teach me to cook authentic Italian cuisine. With great enthusiasm she invited me to her house to spend the day cooking up a storm. And that we did, breaking only to eat and drink wine and be merry. On top of that, a testament to her teaching, I went home at the end of the day feeling as if I were an expert in cooking Italian food from scratch. Serena has always been generous with her time and her recipes. Her kitchen is ever welcoming to people who love good food.

I was invited to an evening with Chef Antonio in 2006, at one of his fantastic pizza nights. I still remember it well -- lots of fun and laughter, and I learned two recipes which I have used ever since. Recommended!

I had a delightful time seeing Chef Antonio in action. He demonstrated skillful techniques with ease, used the freshest ingredients, and presented an amazing array of delectable dishes. Chef Antonio and the magnificent dishes he created were truly amazing. It was a most memorable experience.
