The Nonnas at Ronnie's

Overview

UPDATE, Thursday, February 29: The Nonnas at Ronnie's has sold out, but you can head to the venue's website to find out more about it to head by another time.

Don't worry if you don't have a nonna of your own because Ronnie's in the CBD will be hosting a dinner run by a bunch of nonnas for this year's Melbourne Food & Wine Festival.

On Wednesday, March 20, Ronnie's crew will host a few two-hour seatings (with only the 6pm and 7.30pm slots available at the time of publishing), during which diners can experience the love and warmth that only a nonna's hospitality can provide. Wholesome alert!

The Italian matriarchs hail from The Furlan Club, one of Melbourne's oldest Italian social clubs, and will share a heap of their generations-old dishes on the night as they take over the restaurant's kitchen. This will include a few different kinds of pasta and some of Ronnie's own focaccia and salads.

A welcome drink will be included in the $94 ticket price and the bar will be open for all your additional beverage needs. Live music will also be on the cards to liven up this old-school Italian party in the city.
