Sociale family lunch

Sociale is the new Saturday lunch concept from the FACT award-winning venue, revamped in recent months to offer guests a casual and more approachable dining experience. All dishes are served family-style on sharing platters to connect diners over exceptional food and Italian traditions while promoting an inclusive dining experience. 

Dishes on the Sociale menu include platters of Wagyu charcuterie, fried calamari and burrata, followed by seafood risotto and house-made beef cheek tortellini. For the main courses, expect a choice of seabass fillet with spring vegetables or veal cotoletta ‘alla Milanese’. The Sociale experience culminates with sharing desserts of cannoli Siciliani, pistachio profiteroles and baba with strawberry and lemon cream.

Kick-back on the sun-soaked terrace while taking in the skyline views and relish in a relaxed afternoon of bountiful food and drinks while forging fun family memories. The Sociale experience aims to replicate the atmosphere, generosity and abundance of dining in a family home while creating a communal experience that develops connections through the language of food, culture and tradition.
