This alchemy of buddies has sparked a particularly appetising culinary offering that is depicted by a concise menu of hearty dishes packed with punchy flavours, to be shared (or not!): barbecued oxheart tomatoes, smoked tomato water and mozzarella; crunchy fritters of mushrooms with marrow, chardonnay-flavoured vinegar gel; pork belly, patty pan squash and courgettes.
