Overview

Firmly settled into its Darlinghurst digs, Fabbrica Pasta Bar recently celebrated its first birthday in the neighbourhood. Now, the much-loved spot for handmade pasta and stellar wine is taking things up a notch with the return of its annual Truffle Lunch on Sunday, June 22.

For one day only, expect a feast brimming with tantalising Australian black truffles, foraged by the best of the best hounds in Western Australia's Manjimup region. Transported across the country, these aromatic beauties are being turned into a specially crafted set menu for your dining delight, available for $95 per person.

The feast kicks off with starters like Fabbrica sourdough and truffle butter, and beef carpaccio with mushroom and black truffle. Then, it's time for pasta, as guests relish dishes like spaghetti cacio e tartufi, and gnocchi with porcini and black truffle. Finally, an inventive dessert awaits: truffled honey panna cotta, topped with roasted almonds.

Guided by Fabbrica's Group Head Chef Damiano Balducci, the day features two lunch sittings at 12pm and 2.30pm, with seating in the main dining room and at a communal table. You'll want to book fast to secure your place, and note that the kitchen can't accommodate dietary restrictions on this occasion.
