A Feast By The River

Producing a fresh array of antipasto, soup, pasta and main course recipes, Stefano sets out to share his knowledge of authentic Italian food and his passion for and understanding of the finest of Australian produce. Along the way, there are more of his stories, his comic "bon mots", and his pungent, opinionated asides on the state of Australian food and cooking.

And this time he is joined by stellar pastry and pudding chef, Loretta Satori, whose wide-ranging sweep of Italian desserts, from torte to cassata, biscotti to crostate (cakes, biscuits and tarts) add an even greater richness and depth to this delicious, practical, and, above all, entertaining book.
