Father's Day at Piccolino: Bring Dad in For Woodfired Pizza and Homemade Pasta
Piccolino is a home away from home, and Father's Day is exactly the kind of day it was made for. Round up the family and spend the Sunday around our table in Fitzroy North.
Sunday 6 September • Midday to 9.00 pm
FATHER'S DAY AT PICCOLINO
Spend The Day The Italian Way, Around The Table
Have a proper Sunday feed with the people who matter. Piccolino is an Italian restaurant in the heart of Fitzroy North, the perfect place for family to gather over genuine Italian cuisine in an authentic Italian atmosphere.
This Father's Day we're doing what we do best. The woodfired oven will be roaring from midday until 9.00pm, so whether Dad's a long lunch man or more of a dinner and a Negroni type, there's a seat here with his name on it.
WHAT'S ON THE TABLE
The Food Dad Actually Wants
Ourfull menuis on for Father's Day, cooked the way our nonni taught us. Here's where we'd point Dad first.
Homemade Pasta
Freshly made in house using traditional recipes taught to us by our nonni. Think Traditional Bolognese, Carbonara, Wild Boar Ragu and Pulled Duck Ragu, with gluten free and vegan options too.
Pasta in a Pizza Bowl
Melbourne's famous 'spag bowl' was first created right here. Any pasta on the menu, served in an edible handcrafted pizza bowl, simply add $5. If Dad can't decide between pasta or pizza, why not have both?
Finish with a Classic Tiramisu or a Pizza Nutella, and raise a glass to the old man with a Peroni Rossa, a Negroni or a drop of Shiraz from the bar.
WHY FAMILY DAYS MATTER HERE
Piccolino Exists Because Of Family
In 2012, Andrea Fioriti left his family, his friends and his hometown of Perugia in Italy to start a new life in Australia. He loved it here, but something vital was missing: his family and friends. So Piccolino was born, a home away from home where friends and family gather like they do back in Italy.
That's why a day like Father's Day means something around here. It's not about a big song and dance. It's about getting everyone around one table, sharing good food, and making the old man feel like the guest of honour.
"We take pride in an authentic approach to making woodfired pizza, and are responsible for some of this city's best house-made pasta and gnocchi dishes."
