MARCH <strong>2017</strong><br />
and Wednesday through<br />
Sunday for dinner, Cinque<br />
Cucina e Caffe brings a<br />
taste of Italy to Mona Vale<br />
Beach – with a pleasing<br />
price-tag.<br />
Relaxed indoor and<br />
outdoor dining areas provide<br />
a great setting for early<br />
morning coffee, a work<br />
meeting, a dinner date or<br />
whole-venue function for<br />
that special event (birthdays/<br />
anniversaries).<br />
With simplicity and fresh<br />
key ingredients in mind,<br />
the lunch/dinner menus<br />
comprise 6 to 8 starters and<br />
9 mains with gluten free,<br />
vegetarian and dairy free<br />
options.<br />
Start with a cured meat &<br />
cheese Antipasto plate ($21),<br />
followed by a Cartoccio Di<br />
Pesce ($28) an oven-baked<br />
parcel of Hoki fillet, calamari,<br />
prawns & mussels with white<br />
wine, olives, cherry tomatoes<br />
& garlic.<br />
Their signature 5-hour<br />
roasted Pork Belly ($24) is<br />
another must – whilst their<br />
famous burger is available<br />
Wednesday nights for just<br />
$10!<br />
The standout on their<br />
extensive Italian wine list<br />
is the Fantinel Pinot Grigio<br />
– crisp with a light finish –<br />
whilst the Nero D’Avola will<br />
be a hit with anyone looking<br />
for a full-bodied shiraz.<br />
There’s BYO too (wine only).<br />
