Pistachio Papi at Oasis
Pure Sicilian pistachios meet the flavours of the Middle East for one delicious weekend.
Overview
Good news for those sick of scrolling through your mate's Euro trip on Insta: you can get your very own slice of Italia this weekend, right here in Melbourne. Family-run Middle Eastern bakery Oasis will be hosting a Pistachio Papi pop-up at three locations to celebrate the arrival of the pistachio spread at its stores.
Head to Mornington, Fairfield or Murrumbeena Oasis this Saturday and Sunday anytime between 9am (8am for Murrumbeena) and 7pm to grab a taste of Sicily yourself. Lebanese doughnuts, tiramisu and baklava — with a Pistachio Papi twist — will also be on offer.
The brainchild of Sicilian native "Papi", Pistachio Papi was born out of a desire to share the joy of Sicilian pistachios with the world. After moving to Australia, Papi was shocked to discover that there was no pistachio spread available, so he set about creating his own.
The result? A rich, creamy spread with a deep, nutty flavour, achieved by roasting 100% Italian pistachios, known for their high quality and flavour. The spread is also vegan and gluten-free, which is nice.
"Bringing Pistachio Papi to our Oasis family is a momentous occasion," Oasis Owner Marwa Makool says. "The fusion of Sicilian heritage and Middle Eastern enthusiasm merging in Australia encapsulates the essence of our pop-up collaboration. Pistachio Papi's journey from Sicily to our customers' homes is a true celebration of flavour and connection."
