ILPASTO

A local gem if you live near Inglewood, and worth the travel if you don’t. Perth bloggers raved about this when it opened a few years ago and a member of our BFTP team still eats here at least two to three times a month. Expect an intimate atmosphere with a fine dining feel and food to match, but a casual atmosphere that makes you want to settle in for the night. The service sets a standard many in Perth could benefit to follow.

We recommend:

• Artichoke hearts – if this was the only thing on Il Pasto’s menu, we’d still eat here three times/month
• Spaghetti acciughe & capperi – without the anchovies, of course
• Eggplant lasagna – this used to be a menu favourite, but now only makes its way onto the specials menu on rare occasions. If you see it, jump on it. You won’t be disappointed.
• Fior de latte or goats feta salad – either is a winning choice
