Overview
Pepe's Italian & Liquor on Exhibition Street is heading to the Alps this winter with the launch of Pepe's Winter Chalet. A celebration of everything Northern Italy and the Dolomites have to offer, the team has transformed the restaurant into a mini ski chalet to welcome the colder months.
Expect a custom-built sleigh, fairy lights, timbre skis and a giant snow machine. The menu is getting a suitably-themed makeover too, with plenty of handmade pasta and specialty winter-themed cocktails. Take a seat in the Garden Lounge, under the twinkling lights, and tuck into crispy Venetian quail fritta and Polpo Alla Pizzaiola, a charred octopus dish with tomato, olives, capers and jalapeños. Save some room for macaroni too: there's a Mezzaluna pasta stuffed with roast pumpkin in a butter and sage sauce.
To finish, think apple strudel with vanilla ice-cream, or maybe mini profiterole 'snowflakes' with pistachio and hazelnut.
Pepe's Chalet will be running throughout winter. You can book your table through the website.
