How this dish has escaped Italian restaurant menus all over the world astounds me. In Perth, Western Australia, at neighbourhood pizzeria Amore Mio, classic Sardinian food is proudly celebrated.

I haven’t been to Sardinia yet, but I have certainly been enjoying the unique, often rustic flavours of it’s wonderful cuisine wherever I can find it. Luckily, here in Sydney, we have one of its very finest exponents in chef Giovanni Pilu. His two-hatted beachside restaurant, Pilu, is a temple of fine Sardinian cuisine. Just a stone’s throw away however, lies his more relaxed but no less excellent restaurant, AcquaFresca, which turns out easy-going Sardinian classics cooked with the same outstanding attention to produce and fine cooking.
