Renowned as a gastronomic capital of Italy, the essence of the bountiful gourmet region Emilia is recreated in Surry Hills at Italian restaurant Pasta Emilia on Riley Street. Explore a pantry-style shopfront for local and Italian imported items before taking a seat among shelves of boutique products, wine and fresh flowers while an accordion player readies for another cheery song. Fine food and warm hospitality are combined in this quaint restaurant with a menu full of housemade organic pasta and fresh, full-bodied sauces in dishes like slow-cooked beef and Parmesan ravioli, egg tagliatelle with pesto sauce and caramelised nuts and the classic tortelli spinachi. For those home cooks who want to learn how to make pasta, the onsite cooking school offers hands-on specialty classes.
